One shot at writing a poem!

I really admire and envy people who can put down their thoughts in the form of poems and stories - that is such a great gift a person can get... I wish I could write poems, this is the one and only one I have been able to write :-) - my first and last shot at being even remotely creative...

I am trying to follow the SUN
Taking each day as it comes,
I wonder whether that would be fun
But seems like the right thing to be done..

The SUN does his job, no matter what..
Not withstanding the clouds that at times make him blot...
As the night falls and the MOON takes over,
The blazing SUN retreats and goes down under..
Only to rise and shine again the next day,
And bring fresh new hopes along the way.

The SUN, The MOON and the myriad different STARS
All share just one blue sky, without any wars
Each with its distinct significance, importance and place,
Co-exist in one big space.

All these STARS seem to tell me a lot,
Make me look within to see what I have got,
They tell me to believe what my heart says but my ears fail to hear,
That I want to be up there somehwere..
Unshakeable, resilient and strong like the Pole Star.
