Burble the streams of culture
Over the rocky path of time,
Civilisations they nurture,
Eventually they sublime;
They become one and merged,
Unique, diverse and rare,
With past submerged,
Under every historical layer;
Blended and mingled together,
Enriched with time,
Getting racy and richer,
Like the sweet old wine;
As time passes away,
The life gets greener,
With every night and day,
Like a serene flowing river.

Lovely! We should really thank our stars for being born in this beautifully syncretic country of ours, where we celebrate the diversity of cultures, religions, festivals, with every day being a holiday in some part of India!

At a time of rampant strife even as divergence seems to be on ascendance, with barriers erected even within our little world, this is a much needed ode to the unity that binds us. Eloquent, regal and sublime as the brook that it allegories.

Nice one madam! I hope i read it correctly. Are you talking about different cultures coming together to form one big world culture? One big world culture that will be embraced by all. Embraced by all regardless of the colour of their eyes. Their eyes that perceive beauty differently. Other call beauty immorality. How possible will the one big world culture be? Interesting though!

I am proud
To be born in a country
Like India
Where Hinduism, Islam,Christianity Hebrewism & Sikhism
Dwell in harmony & peace
There is a unique joy
Of celebrating festive occasions
With all dear ones of different faiths
Bringing us
Closer and closer together
Being born & brought up
In cultural capital of Maharashtra (Pune City)
I have friends and family friends
Of different religions
It gives me an immense feeling
Of joy and pride too
