We Come From the Stars

by Tameko L. Barnette

at night, I stand

on the tips of my

toes on my bed

I look out of the

window at the

stars above my head

all I can think about

is what my grandma

and her friend said

we come from the

stars, we live up

there some times

the people think

my grandma had

lost her mind

but every time

I look up and see

those stars shine

I wonder which

one of those

stars could be mine
