The path to light

And when the lights shine and
banish the darkness
And a hundred thousand diyas show the path
Evil hides its devilish face
And yet has nowhere to go
It disappears,it dissolves
And negatives words and thoughts
Have no legs to stand
In the dictionary or our minds
The flame twinkles and lights a flame in our eyes
We see the world devoid of anger and hate
Love for everyone and like Ram the honourable king
Whose return to Ayodhya we celebrate
Honour the smallest the humblest
And speak alike to the mightiest
Respect adversaries for their virtues
And wisdom guide us always
And so when the diyas are lit
And the lights shine
Let us be gentle and kind
And respectful
Strengthen and protect our lights
And be mindful of others lights
And so when the mud Diyas are lit
Let us go back to the earth
Repay its debts and promise to
take care of it
And light our paths forever !
HAPPY DIWALI
