Star Bright Poem by Srivishnu Rentala

I wish I was a star,
then Millenniums could go by
yet I would shine bright
Ever blazing, glowing
not a shimmer in my sheen.
Twinkling with merriment,
And with streaks of aura
A wave here, a flicker there
Doom darkness to death.
Such would be my charm
that even stretches so black
would glitter to life.
And out there somewhere,
in a hut sans thatch
braving the winter chills
A girl looks up,
As she harbors a thrill
with eyes that sparkle.
Catches hold of my radiance,
With a thread of hope
She makes a wish
and sleeps tight;
knowing that days to come
will reek nothing but delight.
