Diwali haiku

Lord Rama
welcomed in Ayodhya
rows of lamps

rules over -
now the fire work
rows of lamps

pockets are tight
Indians celebrate
festival of light

festival of light
bulbs lighting up India
made in China

smoke and noise
poise to create pollution
the celebration

bangs of crackers
filled in air pain the ears
festival of peace

people go mad
exchanging sweets and gifts
blessed shopkeepers

poor quality
consumers forced to get
spree of new

children get lost
in sweet and fire work
bang of joy

we celebrate
victory over evils
doing evils
