Lit a candle!

a poem by Gaurishankar Chemudupati

Candle light, kindle bright!
Kills itself and extinguish
To fill the room with light
Every mother is like a candle
Brings up child, careth not herself!
Every year bringeth birthday,
A day of mirth and maturity of thought,
With expectations shooting up
Fixeth a goal, for all, in life
Cutting cake and blowing candles
Sharing with others what you have,
And learn to see the light in dark!
Live for others and live by thyself
“Live and let live”
The lesson every child should know
Celebrating birthday every year.
Lit a candle in every house
Let the sky reflect on the earth!

(Dedicated to the unfortunate blind)
