Rama Balasubramanian Poet Free verse

I Am a Star In the Sky

I am a unique creation of God
crafted with same love as others
for a unique purpose
I am no less, no more than others 
I am equal to all

I have no right to feel inferior
for the great lord created me
nor have I the right to feel superior
for everyone was created by him

I know I am here in this mortal world
for short time 

I am a star in the sky
living amidst other stars of same kind
vibrating in bliss and inner joy
I feel no sorrow no pain 
I am happily dancing and smiling

I am sure one day I will leave this mortal world 
and reach my true abode in the Milky way.

Quoth Theraven February 13, 2021 at 6:27 PM Rama, I'm glad that I found your poetry and this write in a Milky Way home. Will we reach for the stars and the heavens one day? I like to think so. I also like to envision moving at the speed of light. Though if it is so for all, including our dear ones gone too soon, I pray they'll slow up and wait for us to catch up. -Richard

Silent One November 13, 2020 at 12:03 AM If you are getting N/A's then maybe you are not following contest rules or the poem does not fit the theme. Silent One November 13, 2020 at 7:47 AM Also, dont forget the date, when they ask for new poems. Rama Balasubramanian November 13, 2020 at 12:35 AM Both statement correct. In first case I used the word God and in second case poem didn't fit theme. My mistake both times. Now I am really careful. In both cases I enjoyed writing so N/A doesn't matter. Enjoy the journey don't think of result... I believe in that. You are such a nice soul to respond to my reply. God bless you.

Rama Balasubramanian November 12, 2020 at 4:40 PM After two N/A finally a placement:)) yay! hurrah! Yippee!... Frankly had decided not to participate as couldn't think what to write.
