Festival of Lights are gone <br />All the lamps cleaned and kept aside <br />Waiting for its next arrival. <br /> <br />Often Diwali falls on no moon day. <br />A rest day for the moon. <br />Diwali visit us on darkness of night. <br />Asking the people to lit the lamp of brightness <br />Not only on house, streets but also <br />In their hearts too. <br /> <br />Guests are gone. <br />Sweetness of sweets too went along with them. <br />I am left all alone watching the empty house and the tiny birds. <br />No crackers will be heard. <br />No children playing mess around here and there. <br />I feel the silence and only silence everywhere. <br />Many festivals came and went in sequence bidding bye. <br />Ganesh Chathurthi followed by Dussehra and Diwali. <br /> <br />Festival did lit my heart with light <br />Which I am going to keep it burning bright <br />Till next Diwali! <br /> <br />Yes, Christmas and New Year are on its way! <br />Let me turn page and write something for my New Year resolutions! <br /> <br />©ALL RIGHTS RESERVED BY GEETHA JAYAKUMAR 2014 <br />© 2014. <br /> <br />Geetha Jayakumar.<br /><br />Geetha Jayakumar<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/after-diwali/
