Holi - the festival of colors

Thursday,21st March 2019

 

Let the Holi* become holy

with full colors wholly

enjoyed by everybody

with the spirit divinely

 

it has all the colors

to stand for sacrifice and honor

in the past, it played a vital role

in the revolution call

 

the fire burns

and turns

anger into sweetness

and shines the face

 

relieve your body from all ills

purify it and make like steel

it shall give you the courage

and an ability to manage

 

the festivals serve the purpose

as they are chosen

for the deliverance

of national importance

 

Holy may go in a long way

in our lives and stay

with the burning of desire

that shall always inspire
