busy"The Nearest Star"
Some strange things
are just ordinary things
that people don't think about.
The sun is the nearest star,
but people only think of it
as the sun, not as a star.
It's a common sort of star,
small and yellow, with
a common set of planets.
People think of stars as
far blue sparks at night,
not the big yellow ball
that rules the daytime.
The sun and the stars
are the same, just seen
from different angles.
