A Congress of Emotions Held

A rare Congress of Emotions was organized in a village Called to attend were Anger, Love, Sadness, Peace Others were Hatred, Grief- all to debate on Justice “No need of a Chairperson”, Anger put a ruling. Grief stood up. He wept and wept and talked not. Rising in support, Peace said, “That is justice to Grief. Each time Love wanted to talk no chance was given Serious argument broke out but no one listened “Stopping Love to talk is not fair”, Justice shouted Over the table jumped Anger. He shouted and shouted. Freely, Anger expressed himself as everyone kept quiet. Eventually Peace stood up and greeted, “Peace be with you” Most members refused to respond due to Anger’s influence “Open your hearts to the world”, Peace preached. “Take respect of each one’s rights as vital for Justice to be here Ignore nobody in society, no hatred, no anger, no grief.” Over there Sadness said, “That is genocide to our members”. Not me, Hatred said, you love me not, I hate you much Silently, Love whispered love, love releasing a Dove to each heart Hatred and Anger rose up holding swords Every member got scared as Justice fled Love’s arm was cut off by Anger “Danger!!! Love shouted as Peace dashed with him to exile
