Colours of Joy

By Monika Baloni; Illustration by Kusum Chamoli

Splish-splash,
Everybody clap!
Holi is near,
Let’s make a trap,
Colour everybody,
Be he old,
Or a young lad,
Splish – splash,
Everybody clap!

When the sun shines on the face,
This fest knows no caste, no race.
Water and colours everywhere,
King or commoner, nobody cares,
With hiccups of noise,
Holi brings everyone joy,
No matter who you are,
No matter what you do,
Holi simply comes and takes away your blues.

Splish – splash,
Everybody clap,
Holi is near let’s make a trap,
Splish – splash!
