Brotherhood! Poem by Queeny Gona

Brotherhood!

Rating: 4.3


All the living creatures in Harmony;
Sheltered under the single Carpet,
On beautiful meadows lined with streams of water;
Is a wonderful gift of Almighty to Human Beings!

With the passage of time;
The crooked ideas of fiend toppled the stronghold of oneness.
Tore out the picturesque land into pieces
Making the life miserable to live on!

Selfishly drawn out borders,
Elevated the issues of scarcity of necessities:
Disputes in turn; scattered the dreams of belonging,
Further neglected; would lead to calamity.

We are not too late;
Let’s uphold the love of brotherhood,
Promote peace; by joining hands,
To build a charismatic society!

Inaugurating the idea at each home,
Respecting every one’s idea; sharing what we have
Serving each other in times of need,
Sure to pilot towards universal understanding!

Beautiful poem that illuminates the essence of interrelatedness of reality, with a clarion call for universal brotherhood of man, well articulated and elegantly penned with conviction. Lovely piece bristling with insight. Thanks for sharing Queeny.

Beautiful and sublime insights on man's brotherhood! Initially man lived in harmony. But discord entered into man's life and now it is rampant in every sphere of life! If we can reinstate that sense of harmony among men, we can bring down Heaven on Earth! Thanks Queeny!
