World Is One Family. Poem by Nabakishore Dash

Same life-force is present
in the whole creation.
Only gender difference exists
in animals and humans.

Only we humans keep drawing
boundaries around ourselves.
Those create differences in
caste, creed, colour, nationality, religion
just like books are arranged
in library shelves.

Animals of the same species
behave as one despite their
colour differences and are often
found grazing together.
But man's intrinsic nature
to show superiority over others
is at the root of all troubles
including hatred and war.
