This Ganesha Festival

Green mango leaves and
deep orange marigolds.
Wafting incense and jasmine garlands.
Rose petals and soft
sounds of the Veena.
Sweetmeats and savouries,
and a houseful of children running around.
And somewhere in between is a peaceful oasis
with one clay idol gazing serenely,
touching my soul.
