Declaration! Poem by Veeraiyah Subbulakshmi

Declaration!

Rating: 5.0


Let us not bother who they are,
What beads they hold and tug in, to roar,
What places of worship they visit to declare,
What kind of robes they wear and fare.

Let them be of the distant past speaking Hebrew,
Let them be of the man who talked about the love,
Let them be of the man, who gave up the life to be a monk,
Let them be of the people who live their life as a religion.

Whoever they are, let us not bother, they are our siblings,
Whatever they do, let us not bother, we are their meanings,
We are the human, decoded many secrets of our past magic,
Let the old religious tactics be the bygone, Let us not live in tragic.

Let us be with our loved ones, who actually need us,
Let us speak the language of love now and always.
Let us have the faith in the capability of our abilities,
Let us chase out the evils that destroy our tranquility.

The poem speaks about human values irrespective of religious differences. Once Karl Max declared' the religion is an opium' I appreciate the poem.

Poweful message to muse on & take heed to...Absolute Serenity is not an easy state to achieve on command... We preach a lot of the long-sung cliche Live & Let Live...yet, we still too often allow insignifigance to hail priority. ~FjR~
