Diminutive

Moon cooled the breezy night, Its golden glaze made one realize it was full, There was one little star just beneath the moon, Moon lorded over it majestically, As star shone in its insignificant light, That one could notice it, Was good enough for the star, As it snuggled underneath the huge moon, All of us knew all along, That the star was bigger than hundred thousands of moons put together, But it maintained its distance and kept its profile low, Probably in real life too this appears to be a desirable rule, Significance lies in the able keeping distance and in being diminutive, Rather than do inflated flaunt bawdily and do nothing when it comes to task.
