Month of festivity


Festoon everywhere; festooned with heart
The valley filled with festive air
Men and women in their best costume
Zeal and enthusiasm kings all,
As merits get coated in our soul
Ill lucks whimper and evaporate dreading
Eight manifestation of lord Padmasambava.
Kith and kin in defective horse shoe
Enjoying the Bhutanese cuisine,
“Now a family gathering which was
Once a community jamboree”
Cries a lime headed man in his seventies.

Girls in full bloom
Pathetic boys paralyzed, dumb-struck
Charred to charcoal not by the sun,
Heat of beauty all around caused it.
Perplexed to see Thinley known to all as Lelay
Getting mad with lassie in her best,
It proved someone is right of his words
“When you quote a nice girl, an hour seems like
A second; when you sit on a red hot cinder,
A second seems like an hour”
Everyone couldn’t resist nodding to my words.
As golden sphere gets clutched amidst lips of
Horizon, we saw ourselves in queue as ants
Moving with same pace to home
Boomed with merits and smiles,
Euphoric atmosphere left only a wisp
When the sun kiss the distant lawn.
Seven days of wonder;
Indeed a week long festive month
Of dear gorgeous October
