Beautiful is the moon, just before
The night of full moon. Specially if
One can watch it late at night or
Early morning in the western sky.

We feel the sweet melody of nature and all natural colours which fly across our abode today in this celebration day. The jubilant moment is very well expressed in this extraordinary poem. This is rare of rarest poems. We highly appreciate your effort.
Awakened state of mind perceives many natural happenings. Rain whispers with colours of moon and night adding unbreakable sweet memories to our previous treasure of memories. The barrier of time is broken but the barrier of memories is strengthened and treasured. When sleep comes the magic of night stops but the magic of dream begins. The dream revives colors of reality next morning when we wake up.
When we take part in Holi, all of our past childhood memories come alive. As child moon grows to full round yellow moon, our memories grow with us towards colours of celebration. Fresh sound mingles with raindrops of colours and fragrance of flowers of spring. Windowpanes allow drops to dance in their laps. Colourful rain drops dance in bare branches, leaves and in rooftops. We hear beautiful sound.
Aroma of greenness starting from grass to tree all give us and we behold this aroma of colourful celebration. Laughter of crowd dances with colours of hope and joy and we hear the joyful song in this special celebration. this festival is a great celebration of unity, integration, love and peace. Holi is symbol of universal brotherhood.

I stayed awake relishing the whispers of rain and Of sweet memories breaking the barriers of time. Was the magic of night lost before the sleep took Over against my wishes? I couldn't tell... ... beautiful
Thank you so much Prabir Gyaen. The impressions of early morning were simply poetic in itself.
Quietness of night and quietness of moon both motivate sound of rain water to flow with colour of celebration. Awakened self does not sleep even in bed too as the eagerness of celebration grows more to see colours and colorful moon. Attentiveness grows much faster and we notice this natural celebration with eternal perception.
Again we feel serenity in darkness of night and light of moon. With light, rain drops give us gentle touch and breeze of spring motivates all together. Silvery moon is very calm and no violent we see either in cloud or in sky or in moon. Majestic bloom of colourful flowers have started blooming. We inhale the fragrance of celebration.
Traffic is almost sleeping with city people and moon is still playing hide and seek. Colourful night has gathered many dreams for dawn to become colourful. Night will paint the dawn with many colours before the setting of moon. This natural happening will be celebrated by human beings after waking up at morning.
Opening the back door with great hope you have seen this moon who is slimy and very calm. Perfectly you have caught the glimpse of super moon which is yellow in colour. Dawn still dwells in lap of night and moon dwells in Eastern Sky. Celestial moon is hidden in celestial sky. A perfect hide and seek playing is naturally noticed.
Holi rightly starts just after the day of Purnima. Just before the setting of round or full moon in Eastern sky Holi celebration starts. Progressive moon we see at successive stages. At evening, at midnight and at early morning full moon changes expressions and becomes entirely colourful before setting.
An amazing poem! The feel of joy, celebration, endearment that were etched in memory comes alive while reading this poem.It mesmerizes me.
