Diwali poem

Here’s a thoughtful Diwali poem from our niece, her very first poem that we got to read!

Diwali comes year after year.

It’s on October 28th this year.

It’s a time to be happy.

You musn’t look shabby.

It’s a time to look your very best.

You don’t have time to rest.

We gather to pray

Everyone has something nice to say.

Diwali brings celebrations

And decorations In all the nations.

The candles glow

Please don’t blow.

For if you do

They won’t glow.

It’s a time to feast,

on some of the tastiest treats.

My favourite sweets

The candle heat.

Firecrackers we light

Oh! what a sight.

Diwali is my favourite holiday.

Oh how I wish it would come everyday.
