Bursting fireworks and sharing sweets
And the night the early risen sun defeats
Pleasing words and garments fancy-
These I call 'Diwali' still, as I did in my infancy....

A flash
Of lightening
Churns
My soul
My internal jyothi
Senses the palpitations.
The wick glows;
The lamp glistens!

Diwali, the Festival of Lights
Triumph of good over evil
Historical, symbolical
Let us all look within
And light the lamp of love
Holding steady The Flame
For we are That

Burn all the fears and failures 
With the bursting crackers;
Fill the world of yours
With the bright new light...
End all the worthless thoughts 
Start newly from the day of light.

Striding through the sparkles in satin sand.
And luminous sparkles twinkling all around.
Casting spell with the sparkles in her eyes
And sparkling sparklers in her hands.
May gaiety deities step in frolicking with sparkling smile. 
With sparkling lotus sillage trailing like an elated child.
And thumping foot ferreting behind the dodging ambrosial of sparkling motichoor.
May the sparkling smile sparkle for life....

diwali.
it is an occassion to enjoy.
to lit up light in each one's heart.
an occassion to share and rejoice.
to awaken goddess laxmi and 
pray for prosperity and health.
a new year for begning new hopes and apirations.
a day were  all  ages  come together 
to celebrate as a family.
to burst crackers and play with children.
to make rangoli near our  house enterance.
a day where  every one waits 
to celebrate the hindu festival diwali...

When the lighted wick
Shows the path of liberation...
Ripples may rest and 
The blue light may 
Penetrate to the deep.

Like spinning disk...
On holy finger(Lord Krishna's Sudarshana chakra)
We may perceive it
To lighten our heart
And to soothe our soul

When silver lines stab
The dark shades in us
It may bring charm 
And beauty 
In our ugly mind's...
