One

A ripple in the external world
Echoes, sending a wave
Words clamour to be heard
Making us flap insane.

All these differences

Of opinions that we face

Aren't they just variations

That rise up on the surface?

Isn't everything but one

Separated by lines invisible?

Like the wind on two sides of a wall

And yet is in reality indivisible?

Like the waters that flow

And are known by many names

But finally you do know

They are all one and the same

Like the space dotted

With planets and black holes

And yet continuous, unending 

Beyond what we can explore

All is one, all are one

Feel it, everyone

Tear down differences

Rub away the lines

But even the wind

From the four directions

Bring with them their own

Variations and distinctions

Even the water from 

Pond, sea and the rivers 

Bring with them their own 

Different flavours

Haven't you seen 

The varied hues

That play up in the sky

And drive away our blues?

Where is the sameness

Where is the oneness?

Each of us different

Bringing our own uniqueness

And yet, dig deep

Go beyond appearances

In essence the same

Though covered by differences 

Nurtured by One love

Driven by One force

We become One for we 

Come forth from One source.
