Cosmic Dance





One October night as I sat on the terrace
Lost in the beauty of the world far away
In The kingdom of million stars and the planets unknown
Imagining how would it be to stand on the moon
I wanted to be taken away to the balcony
Where painting universe sat almighty
With a smile on his lips
And colors of nature………….
That splendid October night sky
Was his masterpiece I would tell him?
I was but a stroke of his brush
Yet, he had seen to it that I flourish………..
With tears in my eyes, I knew I would thank him
For this wonderful gift called life he had given me………..
And for the cosmic dance that was about to begin….
That stars twinkle I had always known
And the moonlight has a mesmerizing beauty I had been told
But that night, in my life I saw for the first time
With what spirituality, jasmine creeper intoxicated the wind
And the sight of wind kissing the clouds was a beauty so rare to be found………
That I was soon left gasping for my breath, completely absorbed in the cosmic chant …..
But the way monsoon clouds had put their show
It was not something planned in the script you know
They would hide the moon in their glow……..
He was no where to be found and it all started long ago………
The stars now started to panic
As for the cosmos, they stopped dancing
The owls and bats went searching
As of the nightingale she started singing
And the fireflies lighted my October sky
In search of their moon without whom they could not imagine their lives
The clouds weren’t gentle, for they now roared and thundered
They knew very well, why everyone was so restless
And they took great pleasure for the stars were now helpless
But what a true hero our little moon is, they couldn’t imagine!!
He soon gathered all his might
And pushed every cloud in his sight
They gathered there lightning and left so quickly…………
That the moon was left smiling sheepishly
And as for the splendid night, she found her lost beauty……….
