The Men And The Women Of The World

When Brahma created human out of lotus,
When the Father created human out of soil,
When the Gods given birth human and mountains,
WE, the human, were let alone naked.

Unpredictable weather,
torturous terrain,
fiercely flowing water,
monstrous animals and birds.

First sign languages,
then spoken languages,
after that written languages,
and now we have thousands of languages.

Who taught us all these?
Have the religions known these?
Hindu's world ended at Himalayas,
Jew's world ended at the rivers.

The love of the fathers,
The love of the mothers,
The love of the siblings.
The love of the relatives,
The love of the community,
The love to have life on earth,
have made it possible and
we will make it to continue.

Happy valentine's day
to each and every one of you.
