Smeared with colours,

tracing lines,

unblemished love,

happiness is undiluted,

painting seamless aura, bonding and identity,

beyond race, caste or gender,

wiping prejudices,

celebrating love and beauty,

exuberance,

sprinkling miracle,

making every moment count,

colours are protest,

against discrimination,

anti prejudice weapon,

swarming into the sea of happiness,

we call it Holi,

where good triumph above everything,

gentle touch of humanity,

warding off anger,

bringing hearts closer,

cementing friendship.

pained heart,

abated celebration,

stripped of colors,

vanquishing dreaded foe,

silly,

tiny virus,

carry colours inside our hearts,

not on each other’s faces,

chain of tapestry shall destroy the devil.

Love
