The night I got my new red shoes I couldn’t wait to wear them to school I was too excited to sleep so I went outside and sat on the lawn When I looked up I shivered The sky seemed so huge and cold How many stars were in the sky A million A billion Maybe the number was as big as infinity
I started to feel very very small How could I even think about something as big as infinity
