The air is shimmering with energy,
Thick with aromas and perfumes,
Resounding of laughs and tinkling bells.
Infectious humor multiplying.
.
Days glow with colors and glitter,
Yummy food and impulsive hugs.
Dressing up and twirling with joy
As families and friends unite.
.
Nights fall into a dream lapse,
With diyas, lanterns and pearls of light.
Sparklers radiate wishes into inky skies,
Resolutions and promises reconnect.
.
Winning over the darkness of hearts,
Evoking sudden smiles amidst tears,
Celebrating the liberation of souls,
A festival of and for every light!
The quickest possible scribble… Wishing everyone a Happy and a prosperous Diwali. And Happy Halloween – time for double celebrations! 🙂
Beautifully written. Diwali celebrations nicely summed up. Happy Diwali. 😊
