The Serenity of A Moonlit Night

By Arpan Shrivastava

Being alone, sitting in my room,

Gazing at the beauty of the moon..

All the noises are slowly fading away,

Finally felt the peace, which hundreds of writers before me have felt..

Infinite little flashing lights,

Shining peacefully in the night sky..

Unaware of the millions of eyes over them,

One of them silently fell, and made a small arc in the sky..

The occasional breeze silently sways the trees,

The humming Bird who usually sits on them had also entered a peaceful dream..

A couple of cars are parked down the street,

Under which three little puppies and their beloved mumma sleeps..

The moon shines its majestic eternal glow,

Forcing us foolish mortals to try and capture its beauty in our phones..

The moonlight peacefully covers the land,

Like a hug which takes all our worries away..

Another gentle breeze just entered my room,

Playing a beautiful symphony as the wind chimes hanging near my window swayed..

Just noticed that there are very few clouds present in the sky,

The mischievous moon still hides behind them and then peeks slowly to say hi..

Surrounded by millions, living near the heart of the city..

Here I sit gazing up at the most   mesmerizing definition of beauty..

All alone in my room, like there is no one else like me,

While millions of others are watching it too ,just like me..
