To care,
Nurture and
Cherish till
Death do us part —
A day to celebrate the

Fertility and the

Starlight speckles out a
Welcome — to the distant
Nebulae that stream
across the skies
Celebrating the dimming of electric lights.

mankind staggers for Earth to forgive
and let them live, learn to Love
Om Bhur Bhuva Svah —
