Raksha Bandhan is finally here. It is a momentous festival in India and celebrates the sacred bond between a brother and sister. It is celebrated with much fervor and enthusiasm in the country.
On this day, a sister ties an auspicious thread known as a “Rakhi” around her brother’s wrist. She prays for his long life and well-being and in return, the brother vows to protect and look after his sister.
This year, Raksha Bandhan will be celebrated today and even August 31 in some parts of the country. The countdown to the festival has already begun. Every year, Raksha Bandhan is celebrated on the full moon day of the Hindu month of “Shravan”, that generally falls in the month of August.
Families get together to celebrate the festival and enjoy traditional food. It is a greatly cherished day in India.

Poems for Raksha Bandhan:
"Rakhi Day is a Righteous Day"
By APJ Abdul Kalam
This full moon day our hearts are in brim
Feeling of faith and serenity in mind.
We light the lamps and our hears glow
Radiance of happiness and peace are in flow.
Harmonious homes are like streams of joy
Flowing and flourishing the landscape en-route.
Nobility in heart and character in deed
Righteous homes alone make a beautiful State.
Sisters will tie the thread on the brothers
Abiding them to do only what is right and clean.
Put the Kumkum and blessed rice on the head
Where will dwell right thoughts and noble action.
"The Sun and the Moon"
By Nylee
My love for my brother
is like an ocean
But when I see him,
I turn into tidal waves.
The only one I’d ever fight with and for
My brother is the sun, I am the moon
Together in this universe,
the constants for one another.
