Look at them,
Like fresh drops of dew.
Nestled in the palms of
leaves,
Gift of the heavens.
Stretching and turning
Slipping and sliding
Like delicate pearls,
Glinting with laughter
Let us not lose these
Little stars on earth
Like sunshine on winter's day
Bathes the courtyard in gold
They banish darkness from our
hearts
And warmed us to the core
Let us not lose these
Little stars on earth.
Like sleep trapped behind
eyelids
Where sweet dreams abound
And in the dream an angel
rises
Like fountains of colour
Like butterflies upon
blossoms
Like love which is selfless
They're surging waves of hope
They're the dawn of dreams
and eternal joy
Let us not lose these
Little stars on earth
On the heavy darkness of
night's bosom
They sit like a flame dispelling
gloom
Like an orchard's fragrance
They fill the air
Like a kaleidoscope of myriad
hues
Like flowers reaching up the
sun
Like the notes of a flute
In the quiet of a grove
They are breaths of fresh air
The rhythm and music of life
Let us not lose these
Little stars on earth
Like the pulsing life
Of the neighbourhood
Like buds determined to bloom
Like the breeze of the season
Caught in your palm
They're the blessings for our
elders
Let us not lose these
Little stars on earth
Some intellectual Literary work there.
