Night with her Train of Stars, by Edward Robert Hughes
Philip Larkin

Far Out

Beyond the dark cartoons
Are darker spaces where
Small cloudy nests of stars
Seem to float on air.
 
These have no proper names:
Men out alone at night
Never look up at them
For guidance or delight,
 
For such evasive dust
Can make so little clear:
Much less is known than not,
More far than near.
