Marking the dawn of an auspicious day
Heralding the sun was something bright
Blinding light like a thousand stars
Deafening noises resonating all around
For an hour (maybe slightly longer)
Abiding by the rules towards less pollution
In an endeavor to save the planet
We Indians came together on the festival of lights
A sight to cherish- people adorned in finery
Traditional clothes and shimmering jewelry
A treat to the taste buds – an assortment of sweets
A choice of savories adds to the flavor
A congregation of the family
To revel in the victory of good over evil
In modern days, the festivities continue
To MEET, To GREET and Best of all To EAT!
Wish You All a Very Happy Deepavali

Sahana, I can see that you are adding new words to your vocabulary and that makes your poems quite unique for this age group. Also, I see a bold poetess in you who doesn’t worry about rhyming words and just shares the thoughts in the most elegant way you want. Be like this and don’t ever change.
