Once Upon a Time
by rooma mehra
 |
So many stars
sleep
an eternal slumber
in the heavenly embrace
of a sleeping sky
…unseen.
Unawakened…
by a wisp
of a whistling wind
…unfelt..
Since the day
a zillion eyes fused
in a nuclear fission.
Forgotten…
but for the black hole
in the heart
of the sleeping sky.
A mute testimony
to days gone by
Telling no one
The Story
of the Earth
That was
Once Upon a Time.
When stars shimmered
And the sky smiled
Because life saw…
But it is of no consequence
really…
That era ended
a long time ago.
And who is listening
anyway…
