Star People

Star people





Like diamonds of sky
are the star people,
Lending vivid colours
to every paintbrush,
With talent, hard work 
and diligence intertwined.

But lives are being watched
what they eat wherever go,
Playing with tender emotions
people intrude privacy,
Measure for every action
a debate is on.

Crave to live ordinary
and laugh free and loud,
Miss roaming at will 
little things to be proud,
Fading magnetic charm
in freedom mesmerised.

Hurt and darkness of solicitude
in hearts of twinkling stars,
Still bear sweet smiles
transient as glow of fireflies,
Humanity if touches alpine,
Stars can you better define ?
