A Shooting Star

Ekta Sachdeva posted under Tale-a-thlon S4: Poetry on 2024-08-06



A bright star

Shoots across the sky

Slits the veil of night with speed

Catches fervent wishes from my lips

Brings hope for the pensive heart

Disappears and fleets

Quietly

And quickly to grope

Magic from the horizon

While the blitzing show comes to an end

The space dust runs through my veins

That gently sprinkles

A bright star.
