Editor’s Pick
Holi’s magic, colours splash, joy unfurls
Vibrant hues dance in the air
Gulal on cheeks with smiles abound
Colourful festivity carries joy around
The earth itself wears rainbow robes
Spring’s bloom in vermilion smiles.
As if folks chase the fleeing noon
Palms stained pink and sapphire blue
Kin & allies embrace in amber clouds
Vintage wrongs dissolve from view
The air tastes subtly of cardamom joy
Of songs that echo memories’ melody.
But somewhere stands a serene soul
Amid rainbow riot, all apart and alone
Eagerly seeking mere two shades of life
A tender blue and a blushing tone
That continues to evade his fragile hope
Like a faint whisper lost in the breeze.
When the world is engaged in revels
He folds his colours one by one
Keeping jet black for shadowed nights
And ivory white for the dreams undone
For him, Holi gently whispers & echoes
Of hues faded forever with someone.
