The Lyric You Write and the Song You Sing
POETRY FORMAT, 18 May 2015
Udaya R. Tennakoon – TRANSCEND Media Service
The sky wrote an amazing lyric
The cloud composed a heavenly melody
In the night I saw the moon sings softy
With the chorus stars all around
The wind conveys the message bravely
Moon flowers bloom slowly
Beauty beyond the Milky Way
Reflects a metaphor on earth may
At the down drops of dew
Slide from buds in silence
The day begins with thousands flowers
The rhythm and the meaning people slip
Every day night, even in the dark
Sky writes, the clouds compose
Someone sings, if not moon and stars rise
They’re the people make the world peace
They’re the people see the justice
Behind the beauty bring the practice
In the noise change the voice
Of nature and culture shining price
