Stars I Hankered After

To slumber, when I did surrender 
Someone gave me Untimely Call 
Was enjoying dream hence did not answer 
Colourful STARS vying for me one and all 
Vivid shapes, attractive sizes, all catching eye balls 

Enchantment caught me tight 
In seventh heaven, fell en masse in love-at-first-sight 

Missed heartbeats, fright of missing-any-one haunted 
Arms went out for embracing all together 
Dream reached climax, with bite of bug dream aborted 
Dream shattered, all stars went helter-skelter 
All fairies vanished, pillow was left with tear   

Someone uttered, Untimely Call was of STARS 
Same stars, in dream I hankered after
