Divided India-English poem by Sister Usha George-79th Indian independence day poem

Divided India

India, a land of diversity,
where cultures meet and merge,
is today divided by hatred and fear,
where tolerance is being tested.

fanatics, with their rage,
seem to have forgotten Gandhi’s teachings:
nonviolence and love for one’s neighbor,
have been replaced by hatred and violence.

Minorities, like dry leaves,
have been swept away by the winds of intolerance,
their voices have been silenced,
and their lives have been turned upside down.

But there is still hope,
there is still love and compassion,
there is still the possibility for change,
to rediscover the path of tolerance and love.
