Not all stars shine at night,
When they can shine brighter during day,
Not all holes can be patched up,
No, not if they're profound enough.
Not all crumpled paper can be smoothened
Not if the wrinkles sunk in too deep
Not all horses are docile,
Not if they're more adamant than mules.
Not all skies are blue,
If they can be pink or orange - a prettier hue,
Not all clouds block the sun,
Some clouds make silhouettes for fun.
Not everyday does the moon shine bright,
It can't spend all its time in spotlight
Not all promises are kept,
Definitely not all secrets are level and kempt,
They tend to get woven into
Nasty little rumours.
Not all rocks are the same shape
They can be flat, chipped and weird-shaped,
But all rocks have their place on earth.
Not all waterbodies are still,
There are always miniscule ripples
Not always is everything the same
In the ever changing world that cannot be paused.
Different thinking about many things we come across. Random thoughts or special thoughts? Anything can be named. But to write a poem like this is excellent. many things are noticed by all. But to bring it as a poem shows you are not a mute spectator. . You are a original writer with great literary sense . Par excellence

Excellent realization about the nature as usual with a wonderful message through your poetic expressions. You have deep observations, deep thoughts, deep words and through your deep dedicated message at this child hood stage make even a grown up to think and give them wisdom too

Not if the wrinkles sunk in too deep
Not all horses are docile,
Not if they're more adamant than Mules...
