Lord Ram retuned home
Greeted by lamps and lights
Triumph of Gods over demons
After days of bloody fights
Today we have glamorous parties
And perfunctory puja over YouTube
It's time to show off designer saris
And sip champagne from fancy flutes
Instead of smoke free (hopefully!) sparklers
Let the warmth shine from inside
Be kinder, be nicer, show gratitude
And happiness will never leave your side
Happy Diwali.
