A Shooting Star For Me Poem by Renu Kakkar

A Shooting Star For Me
(A poem for Eid- Eid Mubarak to all my friends)

Once I saw a shooting star,
falling from the sky.
It lit up the darkness of the night,
as it passed me by.

So shiny did it seem to me,
like a diamond placed up there.
The long reddish tail behind it,
seemed to be burning air.

Scientists have a name for it,
they call it a meteorite.
But for me it is important differently,
To make a wish with all my might.

So I made a genuine wish,
Let us see if it comes true.
A wish to last till eternity,
To give blessings for me and you.
