These small earthy adventures of light
Colorful clay miracles, look so bright
Escape the darkness, twinkle at night
Come in all shapes, small, round, wide
Brass, clay, steel, silver, flat or height
Potters make in millions, sell with pride
The lamps create the ambience just right
Decorated shops, colorful stalls a joyous sight
‘Diya’ that’s what we call these lamps of light

These are beautiful, Love hand crafted art 🙂
The diyas in the top photo were made by tiny tots of a primary school located in my neighborhood. I was the guest for the occasion 🙂

These earthen carriers lit up the night…
The poem gives out it’s message simply and powerful about the beautiful, traditional diyas. I hope everyone here had an amazing diwali and new years! 😀
