Diwali

a poem by Anu Pillai

Diwali!!!
Let us worship Lord Lakshmi and Lord Ganesh
And welcome the Festival of Lights DIWALI!!!
And burn the brightness of happiness and glory
Through our deepest marrows

Let our cold hearts receive
The overwhelming warmth of love and care
Let no greedy watchdogs deceive
Our innermost faith in the Almighty

May the twinkling of the heavenly stars lit
Like the glowing lights in the night
And take away the darkness of our sad and misery lives

Let us light the diyas of happiness
And blow the crackers with fun
That shows the joy in our hearts
And ask a life of health wealth and prosperity
To the Almighty!

While our moms come in their hands
With boxes filled with sweets
Which are made of Wheat
And we all enjoy together
As it is Diwali!!!
