Now, this is my thursday poem.I hope you ‘ll love it.
**************************************************
Despite counting sheep
I was unable to sleep .
I lay restless in my bed
With too much in my head .
The window was ajar
And I could see from afar
High up in the sky
A lonely twinkling star
I thought The star left its galaxy
To keep me close company.
To show me its beautiful sight
On my lonely sleepless nights.
My starlight delight
Lasted a full month .
Then on a dark dreary night
I had a quick scout around
Hoping To spot my star’s light
Alas! The star was nowhere to be found.
The sky looked completely dim
And my room was utterly grim
Did the star fade away?
Or did it go astray ?
I could n’t really say .
I went back to my bed
To face a lonely night ahead.
With a mind in complete disarray
And a heart filled with dismay.
********************************
For nomination , I ‘ve chosen megzone , a talented poet in Hindi and English .Good luck to her .
