The sky is bright with colors,
lights up like a lover's eyes,
stars watch them in delight,
the grand festival of lights.

dear resh, just co-relate diwali with the explosions in assam... how sad and valueless the lives of common men like the crackers you burn during diwali....

Diwali is surely a festival which brings joys to life of every human through its light however when the light gets converted into pollution which makes it hard for the other then this clearly reflects that the significance of Diwali is lost.

I like the irony in this splendid poem. You begin with a lively description of the fireworks themselves 'lit up like a lover's eyes', then mention the personal problem of your child's lungs and finish with the words 'on this bright night we burn like fools.' It's great that you are using your poetic voice to make a stance against social inequity. love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

i have heard of a roman general who killed all its citizens an brought peace to the province. peace by desolation......u think on the same lines.....y pollute the air of happiness with cribbing of all that is sad and bad.........y negate or nullify the joy....each gain of yours is another man's loss....so will u stop being happy at your gains.............

Celebration is good - let the poor celebrate together and let the rich celebrate together in there own domains

Diwali, the festival of lights and celebration of triumph of good over evil- you have expressed the beauty as well as the ugliness, pollution, noise, mindless burning of money. thought provoking.if time permits please read Festival of lights Mamta
