वो हवा में कुछ दिवाली की पहली महक,
वो पूरा संमा जो याद दिलाता था दिवाली की,
वो ढेर से पटाखे खरीदके रोज़ कुछ बजाना,
वो भर पेट मिठाई खाना और थक के सो जाना,
दीये और मोम्बतियों से घर का चमकना,
दोस्तों के घर जाना और उनका हमारे घर आना,
बहुत याद आती है वो बचपन की दिवाली!
वो रूठना मनाना और हँसना हसाना,
वो माँ के हाथों के खाने का स्वाद,
वो बाबा के संग पटाखे लेने जाना,
वो रंगोली बनाना और घर को सजाना,
वो नए कपड़े खरीदना और पहन कर इतराना,
वो पूजा ख़तम होते ही पटाखे बजने का इंतज़ार करना,
बहुत याद आती है वो बचपन की दिवाली!
वो चकरी जला के उस पे कूदना,
और अनार जला के ताली बजाना,
फूलझड़ी के जल्दी न जलने पर गुस्सा हो जाना,
वो दिवाली की यादें बहुत ख़ास हैं ,
क्योंकि बहुत याद आती है वो बचपन की दिवाली!
As without our family, friends, and our memories we are all zero. So, thinking of all the good old times and looking forward to more wonderful memories with no zeroes. All the festivals make our life happy and fun when there is no place for any zeroes. Diwali memories are crystal clear in my mind and every Diwali reminds me of the wonderful childhood memories.
Childhood memories are the best and are a good reminder of the times gone by. Those days were different and I enjoy sharing my memories of festivals with my kids. Make sure to go back and try to relive those moments now with your kids.
Today I am also celebrating 100 posts on my blog. A big milestone for me. And this is my 101st post on my blog! #celebrating 100 posts. But it’s a long way to go and many more milestones to be still achieved.
Hope you liked my Hindi poetry. Old memories are always better described this way.

So Nice.
जब-जब देखता बचपन’सागर’ बच्चों को,
याद आता वो गुज़रा ज़माना.!
जब किया करते थे शैतानियाँ बढ़-चढ़,
था क्या खूब वो ज़माना.!!
