dIpAvaLi greetings!

I wish you all a very happy dIpAvaLi (deepAvaLi, deewaali and all other variants of the word). I am presenting here a poem I wrote a few years ago for your reading and thinking pleasure

Deepaavali-- Festival of Lights!
On the darkest night of the year
Clusters of light compete with stars
Ear-splitting noise permeates the sulphurous air
Krishna-- the Dark Lord of Love
Naraka-- the Lord of the Dark
Satya-- the Dark Lord's True Love
The three sides of the Eternal triangle!
Between the Good and the Evil
Between the Light and the Dark
Between the Life and the Death
The War of the worlds wages on!
Krishna swoons and Satya takes over
The weapons of Truth
Dissolve the forces of the Dark
The hell-demon Naraka loses
To the Lord of Love and the Queen of Truth
That is the tale we often hear!
But
Everyday is Deepaavali
Every night is a festival of lights
The heart and the mind are big battlefields
Forces of temptation lurk there
The hell-demon creates a veritable hell
Waves of love try to wash the scum of hatred
The Dark Lord kindles the lamp of peace
Truth slays falsehood and ignorance
The Queen of Truth offers the greatest weapon
Krishna is there
Naraka is there
Satya is there
In all hearts and minds
The battle wages on every living moment
At times darkness may engulf
Ultimately, Love and Truth triumph
Everyday is Deepaavali
Every night is a festival of lights!

With best wishes and regards - mOhana
