A mirror cinquain for Abigail Gronway’s five-line poem challenge. This is actually a 10-line poem because it is a cinquain and then its mirror image.
Divide
Light from darkness,
Each of the four seasons,
And dry land from the deep waters.
Do not
Divide
Human race arbitrarily:
We were all created
To live in love,
To live.
Yes. Absolutely. When will humankind understand there is no Other – only us – the human race, each person just trying to live.

Another thought-provoking poem. Divisions are inevitable, I suppose, but oneness should be our goal, and love our motivation.

But it is driven by greed and power.. so the old, wise rules do not apply to such deliberate divisions. Sadly.

This seems so pertinent to the party and intra-party politicking these days!
