Swirly Night
Swirly Night
By Laiba Kalota
As the yellow shines through the dark
The sky swirling in a circular path
Even though I see the sun
The darkness has taken a new turn
A small town girl observing the sky
See no angels fly by
There is no visible bright light
That’s why maybe the angels hide
Through the sound of the rustling leaves
I heard a bird chirp beneath
The little voice brightening up the day
The little bird made everyone’s day
Under the spiraling sky
A ray of hope always shines.
