‘This Diwali, let’s do what is RIGHT!’ Poem by Harshika, 8, Kolkata

Hey everyone, your best friend Sara here!

Yippeee, Diwali or Deepavali, the festival of lights, is here!

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

Here is a beautiful poem by 8 year old Harshika from Kolkata. She goes to Sushila Birla Girls School and is a student of Word Munchers.

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

O this is a beautiful festival of lights,
What a spectacular sight!

The Rangoli at the door is so vibrant and bright
I love to gorge on the sweets till my tummy feels tight

Firecrackers look so radiant at night,
But bursting them during COVID-19 gives me a fright.

As I pray and light the diyas there is a sense of delight
I simply love Diwali- the festival of lights!
