God's Kingdom Poem by Samanyan Lakshminarayanan

God's Kingdom



PART 1
[INSPIRED BY LEO TOLSTOY]

More than a hundred years gone
since a thought by this great man
to put an end to man's kingdom
to be a part of god's kingdom

A kingdom which need not bind
bind itself to a boundary
a kingdom which need not safeguard
guarding men need not war over a boundary

a nation without a boundary
a nation which would'nt war for a boundary
would'nt be a man's kingdom
yes...truely a god's kingdom

how do you curb atrocities without a war
India did it fifty years back without a war
Mahatma's ahimsa was an offshoot of Tolstoy's passive resistance
Tolstoy was Gandhi's inspiration

There can be only one Gandhi in the world. There can be only one Abraham Linclon in the world. They are messengers of God to show the world that a man should live like a man and not like a beast. We worship these heroes but do not follow their footsteps.
