Who Grows the Stars?

Who grows the stars?
Places them up there so far?
Who grows all of those stars
looking down at where we are?
Who plants them in the sky?
Listens as they ever so gently sigh
when they extend their stems across the sky,
uproot themselves and attempt to fly?
The one who grows the stars we see,
also created you and me.
The one who grows the stars we see
must watch them die,
and so do we.
