God is one

This is a poem which is about unifying people of all religions....

Hindus celebrate Diwali ,

Muslims celebrate Id , 

Christians celebrate Christmas , 

But yet,

God is one.

                                                                            Vishakha worships Krishna , 

                                                                            Shazia worships Allah , 

                                                                            Emily worships Jesus ,

                                                                            But yet , 

                                                                             God is one.

Hindus go to Varanasi , 

Muslims go to Mecca Madina , 

Christians go to Jerusalem , 

But yet , 

God is one.

                                                                          Hindus visit Temple , 

                                                                           Muslims visit Mosque , 

                                                                           Christians visit Church , 

                                                                          But yet , 

                                                                          God is one.

God made all humans one ,

Religions were our creations,

Greatest religion is only one , 

and that is none other than humanity.

But yet , 

God is one.

                                                                       Greatest service is service to humanity , 

                                                                        Greatest work is striving for others ,

                                                                        Greatest religion is humanity , 

                                                                        and so , 

                                                                        God is one.

Let us forget all our differences , 

based on religion , caste or nation.

Have just one religion in mind , 

and that is humanity , 

and say together , 

God is one..........

                                                                       

Author's Note

I hope this poem will change your minds and make you the follower of greatest religion in this world that is none other than humanity ........and you will follow your own religion but will never have hatredness towards the religion of others.....

Amen my friend.

Look online for George Harrison's ---- My sweet Lord----- Not until the end does he reveal his Lord by name. But as your words suggest, we're one big family in the same big blue boat.

Very big hit all around the world, excellent Sitar playing.

Thanks for your review...I will definitely check that song..Thank you again..

[jesserose99]

you know I really like what you are saying here....and even the religions that may not celebrate God as just one, the message of us all being One is loud and clear and a profound one. I really enjoyed this work.

[Riddhi]

Thanks for reviewing and i am happy you enjoyed it and Happy New Year....

Hi Riddhi, I love the idea of this. Sometimes I think the world would be a better place without religion, or perhaps I mean religious intolerance and religious certainty. I like the one religion you write of.

One thing, the same principle as I think I commented previously on another of yours, is the call to action. If your previous verses have 'worked' then the call to action is unnecessary and a little patronising. I think they do work and personally I would remove the final verse.

Regards
Nigel

I agree.
'Let us forget all our differences ,
based on religion , caste or nation.
Have just one religion in mind ,
and that is humanity ,
and say together ,
God is one.........."
One people and one earth. We must get a long for the sake of the children. Thank you for sharing the outstanding poetry.

I am atheist but yes humanity should be the only religion.. we are born as humans but the society labels us and divide us into different classes... loved the way you named Emily, Shazia and Vishaka in it intelligently... another good work....
