Peace

We were not like this before
In time gone by not so far
Living together in peace and harmony
We wove a fabric rich and bold

Hatred and  intolerance are now on the rise
Brotherhood built over centuries, they divide
Differences accentuated create much strife
Narrow minds never see eye to eye

Race, colour ,speech and outlook
Culture, custom, dress and looks
Different strains of music they form
Together they blend to make life full

Prejudices restrict and cloud the eye
Ethics and principles are given a go by
Pock marks on the canvass of life
Make not a picture, however much you try

With every step , sow love not hate
Blend and  watch what you paint
Peace and harmony shall knock you door again
Hold their hands fast and let them remain!
