The Scars

 

The matchsticks, defining aspects of life.

Almost all. Some rightly, some with flaws.

Yet they emit a silent gleam.

A gleam of unspoken words and strange mindsets.

Strange in the sense, unthought off.

Life is all the same.

Everyone will feed, merrily

When in dire need.

No one will bother, once done.

Life, intensely vague.

vaguely deceptive.

The master. Will protect you, safely in a box.

From rains and flames.

But set you to the fire, when needed.

Throw you down, when used.

Crush you with feet, Ah. Life, the matchstick.

Happy Holi, it’s a great day to live, great day to have fun. Bringing color to your life and washing away all the scars of worries, that’s all holi is about. Spreading colors; colors that depict happiness, joy, best wishes and camaraderie. Each color speaks volume about life and beautiful elements in it. Explore it, spread it and enjoy it. Bucket full of water, bunch of balloons and packets of color; close friends and plenty of bhang; FULL ON FUN. With each balloon we throw joy plashes in the pit of worries; spreading the droplets of smile. With each bucket we pour out on others, a fountain of fun and happiness rises. With the color that we throw on others, love and care makes its way. So, let’s enjoy this Holi to the fullest, capture the laughter and have fun of lifetime in a bit. After all, that’s what life is all about.

P.S- Girls, bura na mano holi hai! And do forgive the perverts, who play little more than just Holi with you :p. Just kidding; no offence.
