One Moon and a billion Stars..
On a cold, starry night, they sat there, at the edge of the cliff, with the whole city in front of them, bright with glittering yellow of streetlights and vehicles.Her head rested upon his shoulder, and her arms embraced his arm, and they just sat there, looking at this yellow beauty, silently, without talking, just seeing.
The moon was full, bright and glowing red. It rested somewhere near these two. A few airplanes flew by or maybe it was only one circling around so many times. There was a lake far away, which exposed itself partly to the yellow city lights.
As another plane flew by, she looked up and saw the full moon, she asked, " Why is there only one moon?" He answered readily, "There is only one because I allowed only one to shine upon your face"
She smiled and he smiled and looked at the moon together, and discussed the things they saw on it! The once silent place filled with laughter and joy!
They both went silent after a while, and she looked at the stars.
She asked, "Will I have as many jewels as the number of twinkling stars, will you do this to show me you love me?"
He answered, "No, you won't have so many jewels, for love does not lie in jewels, it lies in the number of nights like this, which we spent together, looking at these twinkling stars!"
She was convinced he truly loved her, she held him more tightly, feeling more secure and safe, more loved and joyous than she had ever felt. Most of all, she felt the never-ending love that he had for her, one that did not have a saturation point, one that would go on and on till the end of time if it could,
That love which has only one Moon and a billion Stars to decorate it.
