Sky From The Train's Window Poem by M. Asim Nehal

Sky From The Train's Window

Rating: 5.0


Train moving at a brisk pace
Passing by the lush green fields
Over the river, besides the mountains
Taking its course on a set path
Carrying passengers to their destination
The night sky from the train's window
Invited my attention to glare at the stars
Performing a grandeur show of nonstop twinkling
What does the earth do and how it looks?
With umpteen species and tons of resources
It must be dancing to some emotional song of life
And we see the stars decorating the galaxy
Although near to earth we seldom understand its pain
How many kings and paupers it had slowed
Good and bad, rich and poor's
Have they seen the night sky with equal fascination?
Have they counted twinkling of stars as blessings.
What their eyes saw and heart perceived is buried in the resting minds
But the night show on sky is on and on…

People throughout the ages have marveled as you do (and I) The stars keep shining, light arriving from millions of years ago, and will delight long after we're gone

'' dancing to some emotional song of life '' - this is such a lovely line! As with each one of us, watching the sky at night, never ceases to amaze me: thinking how ephemeral all is.
