come on, Goblins,
let's dance
dance into the night
till the next day's
first light
shines through the mist
of the morning dew

we are all
small people
who vanish
with the brightness
of the day

but even small people
get to have
some fun

come on, Goblins,
let's dance
so that these
beautiful people
are surprised
by our sight
and shed their clothes
of vanity
and their acid-coated
thoughts

we are all
small people
who can shine
through the length
of the darkest night

and even small people
deserve to have
some fun

come on, Goblins,
let's dance
the dance of love
and dance of life
so that they know
that though we are small
our hearts are
vast


*** this is a little ramble for the times when we feel down and small, and the rest of the world seems happy and huge. I had a short coffee break and wrote the words 'small is beautiful, too' and came up with this ramble... thanks for your time

Sudhir, this is wonderful ramblings from your creative mind, and offers wisdom and food for thought:

"come on, Goblins,
let's dance
so that these
beautiful people
are surprised
by our sight
and shed their clothes
of vanity
and their acid-coated
thoughts"
