Stars in my eyes

I enjoy astronomy, although on a strictly amateur basis. I've never joined an astronomical society or anything, but I enjoyed my Astronomy 101 class so much in college. When I became a mom, I let my subscription to Astronomy Magazine lapse (not enough time or money), but I still love to stop and have a quick look at the night sky whenever I can.
I have loved this poem by Robert Frost since the first time I read it.
Canis Major
by Robert Frost
The great Overdog,
That heavenly beast
With a star in one eye,
Gives a leap in the east.
He dances upright
All the way to the west
And never once drops
On his forefeet to rest.
I'm a poor underdog
But tonight I will bark
With the great Overdog
That romps through the dark.
