Sparkle, Sparkle Little Star! Poem by omar ibrahim

Sparkle, Sparkle Little Star!

Rating: 4.6


sparkle, sparkle little star
in your vast space in the galaxy very far
nothing can mach your beauty and power
your face! how pretty! like the face of my flower

very very big, but somehow small
in my eyes like the insect standing on the wall
a baby raises his arms, thinking you're a ball
but he feels disappointed as you're not ready to fall

sparkle, sparkle little star
sparkle and send your rays very far
there is a plant in need for your grace
and i need to meditate in your beautiful face

who can stop your shining bright
who can avoid your heat and light
only when you hide in the shadows of the night
the others have to twinkle in their colour white


dedicated to the great poet: (DEBORAH CROMER)

Not up to the standard set by some of your other work, try reading the second line aloud and if you can remain objective I think you will notice that it is clumsy, possibly because of straining to rhyme. Enough said, I could mention other faults but feel what's really needed is acomplete re-write.
