It is not out of naivety
Neither cowardice nor
bravery
It is simply a matter of
spontaneity
That I make my way to
reach harmony
Through good manners and
courtesy
You are not much wiser
Superior or even smarter
It is simply I want to
take you further
To help you discover your
nasty behavior
And how you make our
coexistence harder
I tightly hug brotherhood
and friendship
Though you regenerate
hatred and hardship
And do your best to spoil
my life trip
Beware! Life won’t give
you any tip
Only bitterness is what
you will sip
I believe
in peace
Despite
your malice
And strange
caprice
Beware!
Greed will make you obese
And then
you will sorely belch every piece
I believe
in tolerance
Despite
your arrogance
That feeds your
foolishness and ignorance
Beware! Respect, decorum, and patience
Are not my weaknesses but
my weapons
My friend, your tendency
to despise
Won’t take you any higher
or stop sunrise
Please open your heart
and eyes
And with others try to
harmonize
Winning people’s love is
the best prize
