Red Moon



Miles away, hidden there in the sky

Lies the good'ol Red Moon

Every day I steal a glance

Every day I count the stars

My mother says that stars are endless

And that there is no use of counting them

But I can't resist

And so I persist

One day a star fell into my hands

It asked for my help to go back to its land

O how I wish I hadn't done what I did

Alas I can't admit

As I now finally look down upon the Earth and its people

I only hope that they don't find the star buried under the Peepal.
