Lights

Lights
Lights are many, bright and dim.
Some in the center, some at the rim.
The ‘sweet shop’ board, illuminated with lights,
makes any kid’s eyes shine a ton more bright.
The street lights in the city at night,
Encourages people to wrap the day and give a rest to their might.
The lights at the entrance of a church wedding,
shows beginning of new relations in a bright setting.
The desk light in exams, under which a poor student is bent
And outside, by a poor mother, illuminated prayers are sent.
But there is a more excruciating, painful light
That doesn’t actually illuminate but shows a situation of fright.
The candle flame behind which
Stands a family bewitched.
Not because they are in the dark,
But because there is no light.
P.S. – This poem shows the absence of electricity in rural areas.
