“
Deepawali - The holy light
Yesterday it was the festival of lights,
Bright, sparkling, endlessly shimmering lights,
With children running on the lanes that led everywhere,
Because on this day happiness takes a stroll everywhere,
It was a scene of joy and happiness,
A moment to celebrate togetherness,
While many indulged in savouring sweets,
Many felt just walking and talking on these ever stretching streets,
That on this day, led everywhere,
Because on this day everyone seemed to appear in these streets from nowhere,
Life had acquired an eloquent rush, life was in a flow of its own,
And one felt the the joy of a holy kiss unknown,
They say on this day good prevailed over evil,
But I say, on this day humans realised nothing is more beautiful than a beautiful human will!”
In the night the sky was lit with fire crackers that carried someones joys into the sky,
And when I saw them bursting in the sky, I thought of you often my love, not just by and by,
Until it was late in the night and the playfulness of the festive day decided to repose,
And I too called it a day, as my imaginations, now your beautiful dreams composed!
