Blue killed Orange
Rejoiced his triumph
which only he could infer was one,
Proud of himself considering
his great deed exerted by none,
Blue got exuberated
seeing the Orange suffer,
He got misguided thinking
shredding Orange was the sign of being superior,
They say you reap what you sow,
I suppose that is true too,
As, if it wasn’t true
Seed of cherry would be able to yield a tree of mango,
Orange killed Blue
This marked the start
of a never-ending cycle of retaliation,
A COULD BE beautiful relation of brotherhood
took few seconds to turn into hatred and detestation, 😥
Blood here and blood there
Screams and imprecations coming out of everywhere, 😦
Why can’t there be a place
Where names of all religions hold the sway
of being mere words,
Where being humane enfeebles overrides every emotion of abomination,
rendering this human race
with everlasting tranquility,
and this world a better place to live in. 🙂
We have just enough religion to make us hate, but not enough to make us love one another.

What a remarkably splendid piece. I always emphasise one thing in my lectures on Human Rights- if one is to compare the moral codes of ALL religions, one is to find out that they are ALL absolutely the same and speak a SINGULAR language. Yet, the followers of religion always compete and try to nullify others. Well we know the reason for that too, don’t we? It is easier to try to ridicule others in order to look superior whereas trying to have superior personality through virtue is a hard practice to enshrine in one’s personality. So we take the easy route that is to make other religions look bad so ours looks better. Religions are there to share love, mercy and kindness with fellow human beings and yet its followers are doing its absolute opposite.
Very well thought out piece my dear lady… Brilliant! I envy your mind at your age! carry on…

Thank you so much Sir. You made my day through your comment.😃
Yes, whatever you wrote is cent percent true. We opt for easy path and end up at a point where all one can see is hatred, agony and lots of negativity. Hope one day, maybe one day we will opt for a tougher path, but a worthy path.😶
