Festival of Colour and Light

Fidelity writes with ease beneath your picture
Now that love is liquid and rusty chains flake
The colours of love I have for you in a confetti of rain.

Pollen dust hits the water where there is no soil,
Swirling my Divali firecracker in a festival of colour,
Then to my canvas, and then to the sky.

This is for a Holi day missed, a day Spring tested Divali light.
I now throw powder at a whiteness, and paint
My feelings. No one, ever again, will censor this:
