The fragrance filled the air
The musky aroma of the dull oranges,at thy feet
The bubble of warmth and the fragrance of the divine worship at Diwali
Mornings moments fresh and fragrant at Diwali time
Fresh garlands of seasonal flowers , vivid pink lotus buds,shimmering fabric that evoke the prayers
As Dusk slowly enveloped the house,the diwali evening was beautiful
Celebrate...and enjoy...as the house warms up for diwali!
A Kaleidoscopic view of the festival season at our home
As I wait for another Diwali Morning:)-
Loved these lines on" A Diwali Morning"
her childhood returns: dew
on the burnt grass, birds in flight
singing, pampering by her aunts,
the rustling of new dresses,
delectable meals and sweets
Joy sugared the air, as bright
as firecrackers exploding.
On a November night
the festival would arrive: the perfect
opening notes of a symphony
that would decide the fate of the planet.
Each moment was alive:
it was like being washed in the geyser
of memory.
as firecrackers exploding.
