Tall - Poem by Udaya Pant

War hysteria!
Citizen of both sides
Of international border
Surprised and wonder
At the sudden announcements
Of the both governments

Their movements under control
Both sides are army patrols
Citizen feeling anguished
Animosity was dismissed

They continued their contacts
So did their peace efforts
True, at the end of the day
Both had come similar ways
It is the ambition of politicians
Tried to divide their opinions
They did no care this at all
Their friendship stood tall
