Stars and The Moon

Lunatic Stardom

Stars seem to be snobbish.

They stay away, far far away from us.

Perhaps to keep intact their dignity and status.

Though they are bright and flashy,

like diamond studded golden jewellery,

they hardly exude warm generosity.

What’s the use of all this light and energy,

if night continues to be dark and gloomy?

Learn from the moon-“Oh star will you?”

Not having anything of its own,

It borrows some light from another star.

Rather, it steals some of the light,

to help anyone in plight.

It shows the way to an aimless vagabond,

who lurks in darkness sans a friendly bond.

As it lights up the trees and the nests,

trying to dispel the darkness from here and there,

It gives us hope and lots of hope

that life is worth living every moment,

that there are many paths and many choices,

that there is always some light at the end of the dark tunnel.....
