As the rains bid adieu <br />And the season turns mild <br />The sun, lukewarm, <br />Each passing day <br />Takes a little more time off <br />The humble flames <br />Of the diyas flicker <br />And the lanterns <br />Sway and gently dance <br />To the tunes <br />Of the cool, yet mellow <br />Autumn breeze <br />And softly smile <br />The joy that fills and peeps <br />Through the windows <br />Of every home.<br /><br />maitreyee joshi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/festival-of-lights/
