Lights shimmering in
grace for glory
Flicker in tandem
like invisible stars
Radiance blitzkrieg
in the darkest cubicle
Emanate in these
mystic Diwali hours
Lights galore,
lighting up lamps to give light
As hundreds create
thousands this way
We, humans can in
likeness, shine and fight
Darkness of
ignorance, each and every day
Hail humans, let
us tread the path to wisdom
And enlighten
ourselves with soulful might
Let us be sensitive
to those lacking freedom
And help each other
in diverse dreams' flight.
Let us shine as
lanterns in this moonless sky
Bring daylight of
hope in despair and adversity
Let us try to cheer
hearts that pitifully cry
And etch our names in
history, for ETERNITY.
Happy Diwali and a Prosperous New
Year
