WE SHALL LIVE IN PEACE

Jesus Christ preached tolerance. 
Mohammed did the same. 
Yet modern day messiahs, 
Have brought upon them shame. 

The Hindu faith is peaceful, 
Jainism and Buddhism too. 
But religious fanatics 
Spread hatred through and through. 

Every war is ruinous, 
Many human lives are lost. 
Conflicts benefit no one. 
They come at tremendous cost. 

Let us break the shackles, 
Of extremist discourse. 
Let's spread peace and harmony. 
Let's be a positive force.
