The Snowshoe Nightstalker


 
Look up.
Look up into the night sky.
Does it seem your favorite stars
are changing locations?
 
Are they . . . moving and
reforming into unfamiliar constellations?
 Drifting to and fro
around the Heavens . . .
almost as though a playful cosmic feline
was pouncing on them and
carrying them around in his mouth?

Oh wait.
I believe I know what has happened.
 
The Snowshoe Nightstalker,
Pippin. J. Shenanigans,
having discovered a grand celestial playground, 
is methodically creating fresh stellar arrays,
for his amusement,
and our wonderment.
 
Carry on, dear Pip, carry on.
Know that your star will shine on
forever in our memories.


Pippin J. Shenanigans, Esq.
