HAPPY  HOLI



Boisterous Holi comes with Spring

Dawn makes sure that the day shines bright
Dark desires burnt in the night

Frolicsome spirits dance and sing
Blooms burst colors to make bees hum
Boozers doze with carafe and rum

All squirt colors feud forgetting
The Sun above promises warmth
Tropical heat muses in mirth

Hearts in bright hues much rejoicing
Bliss wafts silently through the air
Though coal-black moments are not rare

Through ages flow merry-making
In all lands in different name
If I’m not happy who’s to blame?


Boisterous Holi comes with Spring


Frolicsome spirits dance and sing
All squirt colors feud forgetting
Hearts in bright hues much rejoicing
Through ages flow merry-making


* Holi (English pronunciation: /ˈhoʊliː/) (Sanskrit: होली) is a spring festival also known as festival of colours, and sometimes festival of love.[3][4] It is an ancient Hindu religious festival which has become popular with non-Hindus in many parts of South Asia, as well as people of other communities.[ The festival signifies the victory of good over evil, the arrival of spring, end of winter, and for many a festive day to meet others, play and laugh, forget and forgive, and repair ruptured relationships5]
