dear friend
keen observation towards stars seems to be twinkling. but it is all about nature of light. the one of the property of light is refraction (bending of light at separation of two media) you can observe it when you keep something in water it appears to be bent , but it is not. in the same way when light comes from far stars there will be change in medium resulting in refraction. this refraction appears to be twinkling as it is to far
it is not always stars. there are several other natural organisms that twinkle (light insect)
but poets always chooses stars because of their natural,beauty,popularity(every one know) characters.

Probably because of the song "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star." Its one of those nursery type songs that were breed into us as children. I know its one of the first songs I learned. When I hear Twinkle thats immediately what I think of....that and Twinkies.
