‘Diwali is too incredible to be true,’ Poem by 9 year old Sanvi Atul Sharma from Kolkata

Hey everyone, your best friend Sara here!  What a time of the year, for celebrations throughout the country!

Diwali or Deepavali, the festival of lights is here!

Lets hope it brightens up our lives and minds. Festive greetings to you!

Today 9 year old Sanvi Atul Sharma from Kolkata shares this wonderful poem about what all the festival of Diwali entails.

================================================================

Diwali is the festival of light,
When Lord Ram defeated Ravan with might.

We burst fire crackers at the strike of midnight,
And everything looks a beautiful sight.

Burning diyas at night to celebrate,
Having festivities which are great.

All families worship their favorite gods,
And I turn up the music in my Ipod.

Rangolis, beautifully decorated,
Sweetmeats which are completely homemade.

Fairy lights hanging above and shimmering,
And ethnic outfits are glittering.

I love this religious festival,
It’s too incredible to be true!
