“From Mud to Stars”, poem by Anila Bukhari, Pakistan

From Mud to Stars

In a humble mud house, with no toys to hold,
A girl walks in search of butterflies, her heart so bold.
She touches pigeons, smells the rain’s sweet scent,
Opens her window, sits before the moon, content.

As she sleeps, her mother feels her tears on the page,
But she studies, never giving up, fueled by her inner rage.
One day, she becomes a hopegiver, spreading light,
Embracing the stars, hugging her mom, day and night.

In moments of loneliness, she finds solace in their embrace,
For love and family are her guiding grace.
Through her journey, she shines like a star,
A beacon of hope, no matter how near or far.
