Cultural Fete

User Rating:

9.3 /10
(9 votes)



  It will be an open cultural fete,
In it a lounge for tete-a-tete,
Don’t mind if there be debate,
Debate is the Truth’s soul mate.

Let not our beliefs be blind,
Be all faiths in love entwined,
Let us not narrow axes grind,
It’s equality-liberty combined.

Violence everywhere abhor,
Peace and harmony adore;
Beauty in diversity galore,
Unity is diversity’s shore.

Each day will add a new stall,
Also a stage for the cultural ball;
Global village here explore,
It might take us to love-shore.

Truth in white eternity shrouds,
Rainbow colors make it proud;
Let us not behave as crowd,
Weave the unity and be proud.

Everywhere climate is not same,
Why do we black color blame?
If the blacks have suntan game,
Polar whites live in cold flame.

Everywhere the same sun shines,
For moon everywhere love pines,
Why show big reading between the lines?
Why we on One earth and sky draw lines?

Note: The Poemhunter.com and its messaging system is the wonderful forum for this fete.
