The Polaris or the North Star is part of Ursa Minor’s tail and is located above the North Pole. Sailors and other people traveling at night have long used Polaris to tell which way is north.

There was once a shiny patch 
Of seven little stars 
She was called the Ursa Minor
You couldn’t see her from afar

One day Father Chaos 
Came whooshing on a gale
He plucked away the littlest star
In Ursa Minor’s tail 

The Little Bear felt wonky 
And then her head, it drooped 
Ursa Major huffed and puffed 
Her baby did not look good!

Mother Cosmos felt the pain 
In Ursa Major’s sighs 
She floated out the window 
Of her castle in the sky 

“What do we have here now
Ursa Minor’s lost a star?
Oh skies of blue, that just won’t do!
Let’s see now - Here you are!” 

With that she waved a kindly hand
And opened up her fist
And dropped a sheeny shiny star
The brilliant Polaris 

Ursa Minor looked at her tail
As it shone near and far 
Many a traveller now finds her way 
In the twinkle of her North Star
