MYLAPORE TIMES - Creative Work of Mylapore Children


Night Time By Vibha Krishnakumar
The moon shines bright outside the window, I lay on the bed and expect the expected, And there it is – thoughts in my head a galore, Thoughts bombarding in, ever so more! The moon shines bright outside the window, And peace prevails against its ultimate foe, A wave of words, a strand of memories of love, experiments and committed felonies. The moon shines bright outside the window, Eyes start closing, words grow slurry. A few words, a small groan – Oh one who makes young the grown! The moon shines bright outside the window, A figure comes in the room And lovingly strokes my face, Sits on my side and looks at Mother Moon’s gentle face.
