Happy Diwali
Goddess Sita and God Ram will arrive,
But before that their Hanuman Ji,
In the pushpak vimaan

Houses are glittering today,
No sign of darkness
Happiness is spreading all around,
No sign of trouble
All the doors are open for you
All the hearts are open for you
Oh my God!
Come in our hearts,

Premium Member Diwali, Festival of Lights
since nearly three millennia
the exact origin 
muddled thru times
come every fall
from the Taj Mahal
to sacred temples
to the humblest homes
around the world
the festival of lights
dazzles during five days
of exuberant worship
and lush ritual in celebration
of triumph of good over evil
millions of oil lamps and candles
and sparklers are...

DIWALI

After the heat and then the rains
As a cool quietude starts to reign
Bringing into fraught lives more glee
Comes the day of lights, Diwali

Time, on fireworks and feasts, to splurge
Love, joy and hope finding a surge
Nights turn light’s veritable sea
During the time of Diwali.

The oil bath...

The day we live with joys,
Sounds with crakes of harmony above the sky see,
Thousands of sparkle with ambrance,
Everywhere see the light of peace,
Some burned the sin of their lives,
And some burned the old memories,
Better than yesterday,
Everywhere I walk through, people of peoples with...

Happy Diwali friends

As golden orb descends in dainty steps to invite
black darkness to embosom the sky at night
on this joyful eve of 'The Festival of Lights, 
amidst dangling artifacts - a common sight, 
my simple clay diya radiates light so bright:
glowing and gleaming steadily despite

Be the Light
Be the light;
Be quick,
Be straight.

Be the light,
Show the right way.
Be the light,
And help until the sunrise.

Focus,
To generate the spark.
Use badness as fuel
And scare away the dark.

Use the light
To highlight the goodness,
Be a lighter
And burn the badness.

Be the light,
Be colourful from inside
And clear from outside.

Be the...
