Diwali of Their Return
A Spiritual Poem
The city of Ayodhya is ready to be a bride
As it prepares for Diwali night
Vibrant with lamps and
Dressed in marigold hues, it awaits
For Ram, Lakshman, and Sita,
Heaven on earth, it creates
Every wall in the city bears
The imprint of what happened
Also symbolizing the cementation of
Selfless love at that same instant
All trials and those years of exile
Now fade away in the festival’s light
Tonight, after years apart, as they return
The lit lamps become their messengers
Each carrying the light of love and devotion
The sky blushes as fireworks soar
Even the stars feel called to adore
Glistening bright in celestial display
Honoring this wondrous day
As they step foot into Ayodhya
The entire city bursts into light
Reflecting the triumph of good over evil
They appear to have regained their sight
