Festival of Lights

 

Festival of Lights
10/27/2019

This auspicious occasion
of Festival of Lights, we
joyously call, Deepavali,
celebrations abound,
lamps lit all around,
I make this plea -

If only for a day,
or just for a meal,
lets uplift the hearts
and lighten the load,
of the less fortunate -

Let\'s bring new clothes, toys,
Savories and sweets,
for a precious smile of hope,
in those anxious young eyes -

And above all, a little humility,
to those that are blessed, and
I pray, continue with their good fortune -

On this auspicious day, we
so joyously celebrate, as Dewali
