O, GLEAMING SKY - Anushka Mitra (India)



O, GLEAMING SKY

-         Anushka Mitra (India)

 

O, gleaming Sky,

Why do you defy?

I’ve lived looking up to you.

Imagining myself soaked in your hue.

 

O, gleaming Sky,

Why do you defy?

I’ve measured our distance with time.

Hoping to be there before the bells chime.

 

O, gleaming Sky,

Please, don’t defy,

Spare me the star which I call mine.

Let my name be written on it and shine.
