Why Be Jealous? [ 2 Tanka ]

Rating: 5.0


There is no envy
Nor a bit of jealousy
Between moon and sun
They light the same open sky
Uniquely with their own light

Moon is for the night
And the sun is for the day
So why be jealous?
When one can shine uniquely
And brightly as the others

Nor a bit of jealousy Between moon and sun They light the same open sky Uniquely with their own light..they are not jealous because they are united in eternal love and condemned never to meet......... who knows may be they are meeting hahah.. dont u think so..... thnk u for your poetic heart. tony
