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

I recall celebrating many happy Diwali's with friends when I used to live in the Midlands.. a most joyous and unconditionally generous occasion.. you have just taken me back a few years and can smell the lamps even as I type..... I am glad I visited today Suresh.......
Yes Dewali lights up lives with kindness and joy of celebration - wishing you blessings of love and peace dear Suresh as Dewali approaches again.
May Dewali light up all our lives and may that light spread to others in our world.
Hello Suresh,
A beautiful tribute to the great festival of lights. Hope you had a Happy Diwali this year?
