Slam the Slam, Shall We

We are all born To a world seemingly full of interesting diversity But why do we slam each other Instead of accepting and living together Do we not need each other’s support, sometime? When we slam others we forget We slowly shut the door on ourselves And stop growing except bloating in size And wasting precious resources Which are meant to be shared amongst all humanity. Each one must grow to mature somehow And learn to endure the adverse And the idiosyncrasies of things around That change constantly on ground In a collective effort to blend human needs with nature. Is anything permanent except history? So why not make it memorable For us and future generations to cherish it And build newer avenues and rising ever higher Through cooperation and mutual respect. We need to knit a grand slam team Of entire humanity To go onwards and upwards Like steel alloyed and put to steam Whose frames do not corrode easily through time. Alone we sure fall downwards And perpetuate the differences Those obliterate our collective achievements For creation is difficult to achieve But easy to fritter away on triviality. Slam kills the feelings of care and love Spreads hatred and scares the dove Warmth of fellow beings brings succour Allowing unimaginable feats to occur So let us slam the slam, shall we?

Olive, if history can be reinterpreted then change remains the only permanent thing. So your original perception prevails. Keep posting your ideas. will also love to enjoy your poems. Mohan

Hello Mohan, You are right slam, hurts and kills the care and love we have for one another. Politicians, are the best slammers of the world. I like the knitting a grand slam team. This makes a perfect entry for 2 contests going on here... Let's slam the slam... XOX ~Linda

Hi Linda, with your suggestion, I had entered Verlena's contest also and now she judged me generously, I would say. Mohan
