Harmony!

Contains, Harmony harm,

but in sense, it is a balm

soothing the hurts, the humans fetch
for his mates on this handsome planet.

 

Harmony is truly a panacea

for the disorders, the panics bring

rousing frenzies in human minds

while keeping seldom unity.

 

Devised, Nature herself has,
accords for the progeny, her own

and that under the main heads two, 

living and non-living namely.

 

Rains are a silver strings’ set,

made of strong or light strands,

coolly quench Mother Earth’s thirst,

 and refresh her with passionate feeing.

 

 Birds from their sheltering shells

emerge in flocks and rummage around

finding their means of livelihood

from places more remote or nearby.

 

Elephants exhibit bickers nil

when travelling they in herds together

in merrymaking and amusement

in search of their food or abode.

 

Fish in shoals and ants in swarms

teach the sharp, sapient man,

who chances to deceive his mates,

a lesson moral, in unison, to live.

 

The concept of ‘unity in diversity’,

having not any uniformity, though;

disintegration, he displays

in the course of his actions.

 

The spirit of unanimous thoughts

happening in group-minds,

will bring sure fruitful results 

and stimulate him to be better beings.
