Let Us Celebratethe Festival Of Love Poem by Matloob Bokhari

LET US CELEBRATE THE FESTIVAL OF LOVE
Let us celebrate the festival of love
By burning the candles of love in the streets of hatred,
By cultivating happy thoughts in the minds of our students,
By requesting professed holy men to stop preaching schism,
By growing blossoms of forgiveness in others' souls.
Let us give debt to God
By adopting the children who are naked and homeless,
By treating everyone with kindness and care,
By kissing the hands of the aged who are in want,
By helping the lonely widows who are in pain
Let us bring peace in the world
By eradicating hunger from the face of earth
By feeding the ones only have air to breathe
By painting peace with thoughts on world canvas
By learning to live and live to love on the soil
Let us spread awareness in the world
By creating critical consciousness in masses
By making passive souls transformers of globe
By liberating the oppressed from the oppressors
By purging planet from the kings and queens

COMMENTS: LET US CELEBRATE THE FESTIVAL OF LOVE‏
Michele Vizzotti-White: u should run for president mb! ....a poetic president ahhh what a dream!
Kevin M. Hibshman: You are an instrument of love and a talented preserver of language.
Laura Grillo Laveglia: First of all I must say you are handsome and handsome are ur thoughts! If I had only one wish, it would be that the whole human race is in peace, joy, and happiness. Your words are music to my ears! !
Flora Vasconcelos: Universal poem! My free personal creed tells me: against intolerance, intransigent behaviour. No violence, but moral active coherency, because love isn´t a feeling, love is a way of life.
Bono Razek: aww this is simply breath-taking...
Kalpana Surya: liked the way the poem resonates with some of the themes in Shelley's Ozymandias
Shahzia Batool: wishing this thought to be universal, i think this is the celebration of all positive side of Man's being
John Eva Poet: Matloob, i think if there's anything worth more than 'congrats' You & your poem deserve it!
Len Gesinski: YES! YES! YES! We are Either about Contributing to the Problem, or about Forgiveness, Healing, Peace. Great Write, I Really Needed Something Like the Message.
EmMeilė: Shine your light into the darkness, Matloob! ! !
Cathy Hodgson: Is it a dream? painted with a wish, may the stars whisper in prayer, Our Father hears each tear drop

Flora Vasconcelos: Universal poem! My free personal creed tells me: against intolerance, intransigent behaviour. No violence, but moral active coherency, because love isn´t a feeling, love is a way of life. Who am I to forgive? I bleed and carry on, and do what I must. We need to educate and enlighten trough science because research walks towards the secrets of life, while profit only teaches its destructive ways. Bread and water VERSUS poisonous inutilities. Thank You so much
