The moon and stars <br />Are at their most resplendent <br />In utter darkness, <br />At night; <br /> <br />The human being is created <br />Greater than the rest of creation - <br />Greater, and more majestic <br />Than the moon and stars; <br /> <br />In his or her darkness, then - <br />The darkness of grief and sorrow - <br />The human being shines more brilliantly <br />Than the moon or stars at night-time - <br /> <br />This is the beauty of human beings - <br />They are at their most magnificent <br />When troubled, <br />When grieving: <br /> <br />Human beings then, <br />Are created beautiful!<br /><br />Shakil Ahmed Ismail Tambey<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-poem-for-everyone/
