Apart from simple elements like hydrogen and helium, higher elements were made in the early stars. This includes Carbon, Nitrogen and Phosphorus which are essential building blocks of life. These were also made in stars and we in a way are made from stardust.

Impressed, I gaze at stars, high and mighty,
Depressed, at how meager I am, to know exactly,
Flanked with fluid red giant, and a sun so fiery,
We are but puny, in the stellar entirety,
With end but certain, living life with apprehensions,
Stars remind times eternal, speak cosmic indifference,
For not mere mass, in currency of time,
They are premiers, with wealth sublime,
Stared I have, never felt as today,
Assured at last, walking a starlit way,
We're infants of stars, me one of the prodigy,
We're made of stardust, it makes you, us and me,
Mammoths once roamed earth, minute may rule hours of gloom,
None knew their fate in universe, but just we do,
If earth were mother, father would be sun,
Stars ancestors, in the astro-relation,
In the endless sea of space, stars stand guard, far as vision goes,
And not just sons, we may be only sons, far as one knows.
