Innocent in all matters,

Plain with the truth with no guile,

Honest in all things,

Open-mindedness with no

reservation,

Humbly submissive,

Appreciates all forms of learning,

Meek and kindheartedness,

Tolerance and forbearance,

Softhearted and teachable,

Accountability and transparency,

No lia, no duplicity and no hypocrisy,

No diplomacy no propaganda,

No hatred, no molestation,

No tribalism, no sectionalism

and no nepotism,

No war, no killing and no

self-righteousness.

No animosity, no acrimony

and no rioting

Rejoice with all, cry with all, play

with all and bear with all.

Except ye be as little children,

You cannot enter the kingdom of God

Peace in all corners of the globe,

My topmost wish,

That we might behold one another,

As brothers and sisters,

Never to make guns and bombs

our companions as usual,

Honest report at all global

corridors of reportage,

That BBC, CNN, VOA, ALJAZERA and

other global media houses can

be sanely human in their

reports of global events,

Not given to falsehood, lies and

inflammatory report,

That they might grow beyond

political gains, tribal affiliations

and propaganda,

Our world is going insane by day,

because of insincerity of our

media outlets,

Wish that they might be healed

of their insanity, that our global

atmosphere might be set loosed

from the scourge of hatred and war.

My last wish before I draw the cotton,

Sanity in our global political space,

That our leaders might consider the

common man on the world street,

That they might embrace peace

in all corners,

That they might stop wasting the

innocent lives of young folks

at the war front,

That they might show the same

love they have for their daughters

and sons to the sons and daughters

of harmless global citizens.

I need no more to make wishes,

Once these are heartily considered,

No peace in the castle of chaos,

No love in the corridor of falsehood,

No sincerity on the lips of

callous leaders.

Who is my family?

More often we share with

friends and folks,

Our greater times are spent with

unfamiliar acquaintances,

Not related by blood or contract,

But we find solace in having

them around us,

Millions of miles we are to siblings,

Fathers and mothers might be

gone too soon,

Oh that men can rethink to reflect,

Family is only defined by love.

Many finds no love with

their blood tie,

Enmity goes beyond the

shores of blood,

But love recognizes all as humans,

Even an alien can be next of kin.

Who is a family member?

Folks that we mutually bear

one another’s burden,

Folks that are not held bent under

the yoke of colours, race or tribe,

Folks that esteem and appreciate

fellow humans,

Like passion selfless folks in all

corners of the globe,

Men and women that frown at

war against fellow human,

That is the family member I cherish,

Beyond the confines of blood tie,

The world needs to revisit the origin,

As the seed of the first man

and his wife,

We need no tarry longer on

the path of hatred,

We have a common bond

in humanity,

Until I see you as my

brothers and sisters,

Until you see me as same,

Till then love will overlook our

differential errors,

Then the world can be one big

happy family,

As it was at the beginning.

Far from the corridors of fantasy,

Lest I get carried away with frivolity,

We journey to the moon not by mouth,

It takes fortune to gravitates to

the ball beyond,

For fancy we voyaged to alien’s world,

Just little we learn from it’s traits,

How can I gather my hard

earned fortune,

To journey a land of suffocation.

I can pay no dime to journey

the moon,

Except for research of goodies

that sustain humanity,

Wish the moon can save lives,

I would embark on global publicity,

That we might leave the world

for the warmongers,

To satisfy their profligates minds.

But the moon is deficient of life

supporting gas,

How would I pay so great

amount to buy death,

Let’s continue to manage this

world of ours,

No fortune to waste on sightseeing,

Let the moon be,

As we fix the the global challenges.

Not with bullet that punctures veins,

Neither with bomb that blast

the skull,

But with word that heals the heart

Soliciting for peaceful resolution,

In a world ravaged by chaos

and beagles of war,

The career path of a solicitor

I crave to tread,

On a global scale to mend

broken edges,

Preaching from coast to coast

the gospel of tolerance,

Bringing the world to the table of love,

Not the sharing of war proceeds,

By mongers of war though in

black suits,

Neither is their belly white as

their white shirts,

Our world is not better since the

death of world war II,

They preach disunity and

cause more confusion,

And their purpose is far

too unrealistic,

As a free agent solicitor

I choose to be,

Getting the world on the

track of peace,

Forbearing one another in peace,

A noble course to keep

our world at ease.

But I still appreciate the locals,

Burnt food in most cases,

But I still can boil water for tea,

Food for the belly,

Not much in this.

But I still appreciate the locals,

Burnt food in most cases,

But I still can boil water for tea,

Food for the belly,

Not much in this.

Twenty and two years lies in

the back garden,

Where the whole world assembled

in that castle,

A day that forced the world

to her knees,

As the world trade fare crumbled

And many sent to their early grave.

The wickedness of the heartless

was in the sky,

As the thunderous blast tore

down the world house,

World wailed at the waiting

talking screen

Not a single country was left

out of mourning,

A day when the devil and the world

dine together at the gate of hell,

The wound still looks fresh on the

bereaved families and friends.

Two decades and two years was

an history untold,

Should humanity lives in the

hearts of all

That demon wouldn’t have wrecked

havoc on fellow men,

Hatred has no resting room, where

love has no room left unoccupied,

9/11, we will remember till

our last breath.

To the lost souls we placed

our solidarity,

By their grave yards,

To the bereaved families,

we pray for a renewed comfort

To the sponsors of wickedness

and terrorism,

We admonish them to choose

humanity over fanaticism,

Let the world come to understand

That good neighborliness is

without hatred,

That humanity first,

before religionism,

That peace as nothing to do

with war or violence,

That tolerance is the only virtue

that keeps us in bond despite

our different faces,

That one evil act begat another

horrendous one,

That diplomacy without love

is an act of war.

As we bring 9/11 to mind,

We also weep over the vulnerable

Israel and Palestine

Let us embrace love for all

and hatred for none.
