Shooting
stars from heaven above,
falling
down losing faith and love,
banished
for reasons unknown.
Skies
roar, clouds cry their hearts out,
nothing
fertile can they sprout.
Scattered
angels roam alone,
shooting
stars from heaven above,
falling
down losing faith and love.
Moist
earth silently stares,
can’t
hold them forever here.
Banished
for reasons unknown,
scattered
angels roam alone.
Shooting
stars from heaven above,
falling
down losing faith and love.

and B2...stands for the refrain lines in the poem.

They could be fallen angels, losing faith and love, banished from the heaven ~ Such a challenging form Vandana ~ Wishing you happy weekend ~
I really enjoyed the rhyme scheme Vandana. Creative thoughts and images of our starry nights, well done!
really lovely...the repetition flows nicely here. you have definitely capture magic here with your shooting stars.
There's something very sad about seeing "scattered angels."
This is a really interesting form :)
Wonderful form, Vandana - a lovely means of expressing this celestial metaphor. Awesome.
its a cool thought of shooting stars being banished angels...though how sad to have to roam alone...and i hope that earth can not hold them too long....
nicely done.
