As I hold the Firefly up the Sun
Wanted to see the Sun,
A firefly landed on my palm.
Wanted to listen the music of stars,
heard rustles of the road.
Wished to climb mountains,
Climbed only concrete stairs.
Longed to chase my dreams,
Bread and butter worried me.
Desired to walk thousand miles,
Got discouraged by the hole in my shoe.
Wanted to love and be loved,
Never had time to see beyond the kids.
Waited for life
to happen the way I want,
once all the trivialities are attended.
... it never happened!
As I hold the firefly up the Sun
it dawned on me... perhaps
Life is mainly
these little moments, small acts
that bring glory and greatness
to ordinary people
should they see the rainbow
in a droplet of love.
very nice Dr. Manoj
