Festival Of Lights Poem by Akhtar Jawad

Festival Of Lights

Rating: 5.0


My love, well wishes and the happy feelings,
To all my friends who know art of healings,
Their wounds, their pains on a day of joys,
With lovely fireworks and amazing toys!

Down come on the earth the amazing skies,
And beauty is scattered, all round it flies,
Hates are put when aside and love rules all,
May be olds or youths, whether great or small!

I remember the idols that are made of sugar,
I remember all eyes that are filled with nectar,
I remember my friends and the lovely embraces,
How lovely were the nights with passion and graces!

At least we forget our pains in such night,
Festivals are a source of heavenly light,
If meant for light it's brighter than bright,
We see someone who is out of the sight.
