Cultural Fete Poem by C. P. Sharma
Cultural Fete
It will be an open cultural fete,
In it a lounge for tete-a-tete,
Don’t mind if there be debate,
Debate is the Truth’s soul mate.
Let not our beliefs be blind,
Be all faiths in love entwined,
Let us not narrow axes grind,
It’s equality-liberty combined.
Violence everywhere abhor,
Peace and harmony adore;
Beauty in diversity galore,
Unity is diversity’s shore.
Each day will add a new stall,
Also a stage for the cultural ball;
Global village here explore,
It might take us to love-shore.
Truth in white eternity shrouds,
Rainbow colors make it proud;
Let us not behave as crowd,
Weave the unity and be proud.
Everywhere climate is not same,
Why do we black color blame?
If the blacks have suntan game,
Polar whites live in cold flame.
Everywhere the same sun shines,
For moon everywhere love pines,
Why show big reading between the lines?
Why we on One earth and sky draw lines?

Good analogy with the Poemhunter community :) 'Why show big reading between the lines? Why we on One earth and sky draw lines? ' I wonder why we poets have to use lines and stanzas :) . Your poem make me think, where is the ballance between order, marked with lines and the freedom - with no lines and borders. How could diversity live in peace for longer... The poem is in accordance with the best humanistic traditions.
thought provoking..............very well penned sir..............
An absolutely beautiful poem, my friend. I love the excellent rhyme and meter and what a message it delivers. We are certainly a world full of varied beliefs and colors but why oh why do we have so much trouble being friends. That's one thing I really love about PH, the feeling of a family relationship between people all over the world. Well penned indeed. Best wishes Richard
