Aisha Baniya
There seems to be peace everywhere,
A sky full of stars
And the moon in the center
Fresh air was blowing too
Slowly, I fell asleep and lost in the dream.
I saw that
I was flying high over the sky
Counting twinkling stars.
I found the moon close to me
And more close.
I took a deep breath and land on the moon,
Felt that my aim got fulfilled.
Also
I was trying to fly over to those stars
But my wings got frozen,
I was praying to God for help
With my eyes full of tears,
Rumbling and blasting sound
Was coming there too.
Finally, I was moving
And flying little more and more.
Gradually, I realized that it was getting colder
I woke up in shock
And I found that
I was soaked in water
I tried to stop shivering hatchling to crying
I was totally destroyed.
Where canI go in the midnight?
Hey rain, we bird hate you!
I hate you even more!
