The Moon Poem by ratnaprabha raykar

The Moon

Rating: 3.1


I gaze in wonder at the luminous moon

so pure, untouched, calm

free from the bustling world

so happy, so contented, clamouring not for more

promenading in the suns reflected glory

it seems to chuckle at our trivial squabbles

our greed for success, our frantic race for it,

our obsession with 'I' 'ME 'MINE

shrivelling many as we succeed
