Its that time of the year when we celebrate HOLI,
it may be colorless here but in my heart if you may see..
I hold all the colors which bind me to my land,
my parents, sisters and brothers without them my life is bland..
I wish them all the happiness as bright as the gulal,
And on this festival I confess I miss them one and all..
I would put the red color
on the face of my mother
and wish her smile to stay
forever and ever!
I would put the green color
on the face of my father
and pray for his good health
as his support is my most precious wealth!
I would put the pink color
on the face of my sister
and pour all the love
for my naughty little dove!
I would put the blue color
on the face of my brother
and shower all the care
not one drop shall I spare !
Even though I'm so far my feelings reach out..
I may not say out loud but my heart pours it out.
Each color that you see depicts the emotions in my heart..
I may be away from you but I'm still connected to your heart.
So this Holi I say, I may not have the colors..
but your love and blessings are brighter than the blooming flowers.
