A PALANQUIN OF STARS..

 

A humble dedication to Aravind Suchindra and his friends who made this Diwali special for a few kids! :)

While our lives shines in the darkness of hope,
The world is lit with the lamp of light.
We come together,close our eyes,
Hear the chatter,chirp and see the smiles so bright.

We pray for a mother fussing us with sweets,
A father holding our hands in the noisy streets.
A brother helping us welcome the guests,
A sister who made sure we were dressed in our best.


The fire, the smoke,the crackers light up the sky,
Hope we too had a home, at least for a while.
Little joys of life for a second to hold,
Fun and laughter, of a life time to with hold.

We closed our eyes and turned to the heavens,
Searching for love, bonding and magic that we could amass.
 Just when we felt He heard us right

They came in a palanquin of stars!
