In the quiet thread of Rakhi's grace,
Lies a bond no time can erase.
A promise wrapped in silk so pure,
Of love that forever will endure.
Beyond the playful jests and cheers,
There’s a truth that whispers through the years.
Life teaches, in its gentle way,
That bonds of heart can never fray.
A sister’s strength, a brother’s shield,
In life’s great battle, neither yield.
For in this bond, we truly find,
The lessons that reshape the mind.
When storms of life come raging through,
It’s love that guides, it’s love that’s true.
And like the Rakhi, strong yet thin,
It’s the simple things that let us win.
So cherish every thread you weave,
In bonds of love, choose to believe.
For Raksha Bandhan’s silent art,
Is life's lesson: protect the heart.
Lies a bond no time can erase.
A promise wrapped in silk so pure,
Of love that forever will endure.
Beyond the playful jests and cheers,
There’s a truth that whispers through the years.
Life teaches, in its gentle way,
That bonds of heart can never fray.
A sister’s strength, a brother’s shield,
In life’s great battle, neither yield.
For in this bond, we truly find,
The lessons that reshape the mind.
When storms of life come raging through,
It’s love that guides, it’s love that’s true.
And like the Rakhi, strong yet thin,
It’s the simple things that let us win.
So cherish every thread you weave,
In bonds of love, choose to believe.
For Raksha Bandhan’s silent art,
Is life's lesson: protect the heart.
Written on occasion of Raksha Bandhan or Rakhi .. for those who don't know .. Raksha Bandhan is a traditional Indian festival where sisters tie a decorated thread called a "Rakhi" around their brothers' wrists, symbolizing protection and love. In return, brothers promise to protect and cherish their sisters. It’s a day that blends playful sibling rivalry with deep familial bonds. While it started as a brother-sister tradition, it's evolved to include anyone you care for, celebrating the idea of safeguarding each other. Essentially, it’s a day where love and obligation intersect with a dash of cultural flair.
