Festival Of Lights

A zillion lights adorn the autumn sky 

Echoes of crackers ripple throughout the night

Sparkling colours spread joy and happiness

Today’s the triumph of good over bad

A joyful day for mind and soul

On this festive season of lights

May the gleaming light of diya

Brighten your life and

Hope the year brings you luck

& fulfils all your dearest dreams....

Wishing you and your family a very happy and prosperous Diwali!

Much Love,

Ankita

Autumn Leaves

A leaf once young

Now falls one by one

In the form of  red and golden showers

Covering the little flowers

With a warm blanket

The earth looks like a fairy land 

With colourful carpet and dancing leaves 

Alas! Autumn leaves are falling down

And winter will soon follow on...

If I were...

If I were the summer rain

And you were a rainbow

I'd keep the sky sunlit

To keep you warm and close 

If I were the night sky

And you were a shining star

We'd lit up the sky with dazzling light

And hum songs whole night

If I were a bird 

And you were a cloud

I'd fly up so high 

To be with you all day

If I were the autumn breeze 

And you were a crimson leaf

I'd lift you gently up 

And we'd dance together in the air

If I were a poem 

And you were an author

Our love would be engraved

In a book forever...
