Star Gazing

One chilly Winter's evening,
When twilight's end was nearing,
One by one, with no haste, the heavenly bodies blinked,
Down upon Earth, as darkness dawned and the stars winked.

Two young girls, wrapped up to their necks, in shawls,
Moved up to the terrace to hear the Heaven's calls,
They lay down on their backs and looked up,
At God's enchanting Creation, a most treasured setup.

They lay there and stared in awe,
As the clouds passing by, dressed and undressed the bright moon, they saw,
The star strewn night sky left them dazzled,
While the mystery of it's creation, left them baffled.

They were soon out of words to appreciate and admire,
Excitement crept up their minds like wild fire,
Stretched across the deep blue velvet sky,like scattered paint on canvas,
The beautiful scene had them entranced and ravenous.

The tranquility and serenity that the stars to them offered,
Left all the noise in their heads, muffled,
They were amazed at how simple things like wonderful scenery,
Could put them out of their deepest misery.

They gazed and gazed up above, despite the biting cold,
The shapes of Mermaids, Poodles, and snakes, they saw on a cloud,
Their enjoyment was beyond explanation,
For so stunning and striking was their vision.

Two young girls on a chilly Winter's evening,
Climbed up the terrace in pursuit of star gazing.
