Festival Of Light Poem by Aftab Alam

Festival Of Light

Rating: 5.0


Glittering, glimmering, gleaming with glamour,
Darkest night brightly decorated; earth shimmer (s)
Heaven's necklace with pendant; the moon,
Is seen nowhere, a moon less night; a lovely boon,

This is the victory of light against the darkest dark,
We must vow to keep the same; be careful, hark,
I prithee! Light a candle in the dark heart; light,
Deepavali a festival of driving away evil; must fight,

Festival of light sacredly whispers-lead kindly light,
O Mankind! Drive away the evil, keeping within bright

Deepavali—Festival of light
