The Morning Of May

It was the month of may

Midnight, and I was eagerly waiting 

Like a dream coming true

The eta aquariids!

Connected to Halley”s comet

Time was on slow marching pace 

When it showed half past three

Swiftly! I drew wire out of socket

Reached the roof-top with grin on face

It was same roof and same watch in my pocket

But, that day it solved a mismatched case

My thoughts were gearing up like a rocket

“Stars lived between darkness and eternity”

Then, it was there! by 5 am 

Awestruck! by the beauty of meteor shower

A yellow streak of burning stars

A tongue-tied moment like a,

Tie between reality and fantasy of an hour
