LAST NIGHT, NOT THE LAST

Sleeping near the window

Only could see one star

It winked at me

And then I did too

It saw me smiled

I told, its happiness

And so it smiled back

Why wet eyes?, asked the star

They are memories raining, I said with a smile

Then came Mother Cloud

But it refused to go

First meet it is, said the star

I told about my nice day

Only night shift for me, said the star

I said, but you spark at night

But all sleep when I spark, said the star

You secretly watch us at dawn, I said

Why to hide when you are awake, said the star.
