Its a paradox that i see,
first it was pangea,
then so many continents broken down into 7 from 3,
a small living bacteria too,
lead to the formation of many races from just two,
then nature's language man began to read,
he separated himself from the rest of the creed,
he said ur green, ur blue and im yellow,
oh how strange it would be to mix and match with the other fellow,
i'll hang around in my end of the spectrum,
and the other colours soon chanted the same anthem,
soon, formed the rainbow a coloured band
and each colour was happy in his own petty land,
they accepted that this was the right way to live,
don't mix or mingle wid the rest in an attempt to take or give,
we'll blossom into a mighty clan of our own,
the seeds of this separation, long before nature had sown,
but they didn't see wid their ignorance a colour that was lost ,
the colour of snow , which heard their chatter as it lay still on the frost ,
i wish you would learn to disobey sometime said he,
i stand peaceful despite having a little of all of you in me ,
oh i know that you've seen things only separate out this far ,
but give this a thought despite it sounding so bizarre ,
i know its not easy to co-exist when you've been apart this long ,
although u cud atleast make a feeble attempt to get along ,
don't shut ur eyes so tight that u can't see how beautiful green is dear blue,
its shade is slightly different but it shines just as radiantly as you do !
there's a slight tendency to stick to the same kind,
but don't shut ur eyes to others , making ur insight so blind ,
we don't need to have one colour that is omnipresent ,
its this contrast thats makes life worth living, of things being so different,
i wish dear colours you would make this an asset not a liabilty,
for once don't concede to segregate and thrive in this variety...

Really nice... Makes me think and the language is enchanting too at the same time..
cheers!
thanks anuja :)
Well, yea, its the way nature has found to work, we divide and specialise to evolve...and thats fine as long as we dont forget what we create as a whole. Since each piece on its own is useless, right?
Nice post :)
Love the thought that went into it.its a wonderful piece of work.the simple and neutralised language makes it more impactive.
Really beautiful... I love the way your usage of words create a music of their own:)
Brilliant post. You know what? I've seen it in mountaineers or those who've seen the beauty, the nature has to offer closely that they tend to write well or maybe give a very clear n candid expression on many things. You'll wonder what's the connection. But this post reflects it a lot. Good work!!!
