What do you think this poem is about?

My religion

My religion perpetually flows,
It never loses its sheen & glow;
My religion never binds,
It always opens up the mind.

Love lesson is at its heart,
Anger and violence depart,
Sympathy & coexist impart,
It never sets the hearts apart.

My religion has least rules,
It has always kept me cool;
It has never made me fool,
With me it is a rational tool.

It is a great uniting force,
Time-space changes its course;
It doesn’t give feeling of remorse,
Of strength & peace it is great source.

Hindus and Muslims all embrace,
Buddhists & Christians have face;
Love for all religions at its base,
From it descends heavenly grace.

I won’t give my religion a name,
Name always has brought blame;
Ever it was and ever it will be,
Its stream overflows perpetual glee.

Come and in love religion dive deep;
All Heavenly blessings on you heap.

    It's wonderful, when someone finds
    something they deeply believe in
    and gives them, ultimate peace!
    And I say to you my friend, I hope
    it, will never cease! You can't go
    wrong, when you feel so strong,
    it helps you, to grow! So keep on
    this course and you'll have no
    remorse, this much, I do know! !

    the poem is great in its meaning and style, it is extremely beautiful, it reveals the depth of your thinking, my best friend. I hope it would be a sole religion called humanity and all believe in it.

    Although this is a good and very well expressed poem, C P, it is not proper to use '&' in place of the word 'and.' Poetry is not text messaging or e-mail jargon, as I am sure you are well aware. It actually detracts from your beautiful poem.
