Fragrance of Harmony

What makes a rainbow?
A color?
No, my dear friend,
Its the amalgamation of seven different colors;
That come together
Merging their boundaries.

What makes the sky look beautiful?
A star?
No, my dear friend,
Its the combination of stars, planets, moons;
Objects of all shapes and sizes
That move in harmony
Around each other.

What makes the atmosphere?
A gas?
No, my dear friend,
Its the mixture of various gases
Along with right amount of water vapor
That keeps us alive.

These are facts
Which we all know.
I wonder then,
Why have we not
Drawn inspiration from nature?

Why are we not ready
To break the shackles
Of caste, creed, race
Religion and place?

We talk to "them",
But we don't gel with them.

We cling on to these barriers;
Thinking -
I am a Rose
While he is a Tulip
And she a Daffodil.

Friends,
Think -
What a lovely bouquet
It would be,
If we forget these differences
And spread around
The fragrance of
Harmony.
