THE UNIVERSE OF DIVERSITY
Not two persons are alike.
If you want the other to be like you
Get ready for disorientation
And discord.
Better try to honour the differentness
Of your partner
And never transgress
His personal space.
When eyes are different
Visions are different
Vision of four eyes
Can never be congruent
We who try others to look like us
Think like us
And behave like us
Lack basic existential sense.
God too is a lover of beauty
So is man, his great deputy
Only love can ensure peace
In this universe of Diversity.
