Brother Poem by AHO Speaks

Brother

Rating: 5.0


If you are my brother and I am yours
Why do we talk against each other without cause?
Why do we let our eyes distinquish one from the other
Color means nothing if you are truly my brother.

You have your likes and I have mine
Don't let that stop our love from becoming thine.
So you go to one religion and I go to another
Can we not still receognize each as a brother?

So I have more material goods than you
Can we not come together and share the view?
God did not seperate us one from the other
And those that have were not really our brothers.

So you like one food and I like the other
Can we not share as with a brother?
So your nation is richer or stronger than mine
God did not give you that for only thine.

So your eyes are round or oval or whatever
Will you let this; our relationship sever?
Some will say that because of our externals
Seperates because the God who created us is eternal.

Have they seen God who gave us life?
No; and that is why they continue the strife.
Who are they who know so much?
Are they the only ones; that God will touch?

God has touched all who received the gift of life
Search for it and end the earthly strife.
Don't be afraid to look for God within yourself
Fot it is there and not on a shelf.

Don't call someone a brother just to be nice
For we alreadhy had one; who paid the supreme sacrifice
Look for God and I'll look for the other
And when we meet, just hug and say; 'Hi brother.'..
