The star witnessed it .

The star witnessed it .

A Poem by Sriparna

She looked over the window lying in bed ...,
Looking at sky ,she found a star ,
The only one could read her heart ,
She stared and stared,
She could feel her body at ease on the bed ...,
but the soul wasn't there ...,
far away gone with the wind...,
Every night it travels the innert town ,
Falls onto the pavements ,
Flies over the dead sky ,
Crawls over the cloud beds,
Looks for it nightingale friends,
The star smiles back at her ,
Witnesses how the wonderer soul imposes upon her unrequited body .

Very good use of words and thoughts. Create visions and place for the reader. I like the flow of thoughts leading to the strong ending. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

Really nicely written poem, feeling like your soul is lost somewhere out in the world even though you feel somewhat at peace looking at the stars, I think many of us feel like our souls are out wandering from time to time - great imagery :)

A beautifully written poem with perfect imagery.The description has a lively effect as if the whole situation can be visualized. There is the impression of night time. . .stars. .wandering soul and mind for the sophistacated creation. " But the soul wasn't there. . Far away gone with the wind" a wonderful line that I prefer. Overall, a great write.
