Makara Sankranti- A Fresh Start

The sun shines its beautiful rays,

To the people with mended ways.

Work hard they must,

For this isn't a festival for lust.

Sankranti opens hearts and gives people the strength to fight,

For celebrating this marvelous is their right.

Time's habbit is to cause all things to devour;

Bird, beast, tree, flower;

Gnaws iron, bites steal;

Grinds hard stones to meal;

Slays king, ruins town,

And beats high mountains down.

Sankranti is not affected time,

As this festival makes it stand in line.

The Moonless Night
