HOPE

HOPE BY MINAKHEE



I'm so glad for the chance to contribute to a wonderful cause through my art. Two of my paintings will be auctioned at an charity event at Hotel Monarch, Dubai,for the Syrian refugees. 

The light of life

The radiance of night, plays trick on mind
Is it day yet? Oh ! It's just the luminous Diwali, lights
Fountains of laughter ignite the air
Spirited children, and sparkles sprinkle happiness blare
Shiny glitters on sky, chase away the gloomy shades
Everywhere life and the zeal to live thrives
Elsewhere the air shatters, and splinters fly
Screeches of terror vibrate through every inch
 A line of houses reduces to boulders and ashes dry
Panic, fear, and shrieks of desperation descends
A hand, a leg, bloody faces dots every inch
Innocence, humanity and sanity mutilated, only brutality rages thick
For land, honor, religion or money, the reason forever weak
The right to erase life, can never be a worthy feat
