The sun went to bed,
and then the moon did rise.
To sing to its dear earth,
a sweet lullaby.
Taking away the pain, of the parting with the sun.
Then did, the earth say,
Go away! oh sun ,
and let the moon stay.
For the moon was here with me,
In the darkness that you had left me.
To dear earth the sun replied,
you forgot that even i did shine.
And the moon that is now so dear,
it is from my light that it shines.
Dear earth refused to hear,
declaring the sun as dear,
knowing its heart was still here,
could not say this to the moon,
the moon would wither it feared!

ReplyDeleteWhat i feel after reading it is something that i would surely like to share,b'coz i feel myself in some part of the poem...it has a great hidden meaning.
ReplyDeleteItz true in many contexts.Sometimes we are on the place of the earth,we know a little of something and lay the blame on someone who is just in the place of sun.we dont even want to hear them.
But when the time doesn't favours us and the same happens with us....Then we come to know...the Sadness,the Misery,the...guilt..!!! Not coz we are blamed for something which was not our fault....BUT...How would that person had felt,how much had he cried...WE AVOIDED THAT PERSON.
At that moment we just come to know of our fault...but what can be done now ???
I've already commited my mistake.........
Can that done be...just undone.
yaar logon ko insaano se pyaar hota hain,
ReplyDeleteterko earth,moon,stars.....kab se....
hahahahah

@apoorv - thanks...
ReplyDelete@kunal - hats off..it takes a lot to accept such things in front of everybody.there are times when we find ourselves facing the situation that we had created for someone else...this is the time that we need to learn from our mistake and try not making that mistake again. and to learn how to stop ourselves from hurting others in future..
@pompy - hum insaan hi aise hain. ;)
