Little Star (For L)

The whole universe glowing

expected

for a new star

to be born and to shine.

Savage winds

on the earth congregated

growing quiet 

they dreamt about her.

Even the quiet rain

started to whisper 

chanting how pretty

the new star will be.

A white bird sang

and  looked up

in the heavens
searching to see the new star.

And then she was born

in the coldest of all mornings

as exactly predicted

by the wise man.

The bird sings no more

the universe's busy;

in the eyes of my beautiful daughter  

I see twinkle of the brightest of all little stars.
