Poem by Swasti Sharma
A true bond of love and affection,
Who think for each other’s protection.
Can you guess that pious relation?
With whom we always make plans for our vacations.
Yes, that’s a brother sister gang!
What can’t we overcome with our association,
Just the second thing we want is dedication.
You are the cutest gift given to a sister,
Whose voice seems irritating but I love to hear.
Today is a special and auspicious day,
Prayers to God, to keep everyone healthy and gay.
Also, on this day, a sister ties a knot around her brother’s wrist,
And promise each other that they will never be in any conflict.
Every earthling is a brother and sister,
It may be from another mother or mister.
A small message to all of you,
Through this poem I hope you pursue.
For every citizen and adorable one,
From my heart I wish a very happy Raksha Bandhan!
