Build Poem by nafisa baheranwala

Build

Build bridges and not walls
Build parks, and lesser malls
Let this new year be serene
And more peaceful than it's been
This year let's change the way we think
And pull back ourselves from the brink
Let us now choose cotton over mink
Or fate will change, before we can blink…
Let's make 2026 a very special year,
Let us choose peace and not undue fear
Let go of wars and of loot
Let us for better bonding, root
Let's now form a human Link
and from the cup of friendship, drink
Let us have the courage to dare, and to do
So that we may not, later in life, rue.
