Holika Funeral

My society was ready to celebrate Holi and so a day before , Holika burning function was too organized . All the society was gathered and various rituals were performed around the bonfire arrangement. They were offering rice , flowers to the Holika .
But for me these festivals don’t bring any more happiness . They just make me sad and I am reminded of my Holi in Bokaro along with my family and MAA. In the evening when the holika was burnt, it was as if I was in the funeral of my mother and burning the same .
Just with her departure , the meaning of festivals have changed for me . Still wonder , why she left me alone .
