Swat the hate-hate bug

Swat the hate-hate bug

Hatred is simply a fractious bug on the brain 
which doesn't always wash away with the rain 
that is neither the rain of love nor that of homily 

But if you solemnly profess belief 
in the God right above 
let this even to atheists be relief 
that God only means love 
for no religion preaches hatred to man or family 

The wronged wishing to be placated 
The tortured wishing to be avenged 
Embittered humans provoked to malice and hatred 
forgetting we are all but Adam's progeny and kindred 
Alas, hatred's a scenario that so costs humanity 

Most of us are tired of hearing 
of this cause and effect' 
circle of violence and repercussion 
Why wilfully make yourself a target 
and fall in lasting perdition? 

We don't wanna hear the hate crimes is a virus 
that has no earthly cure 
Since compassion is a vaccine 
to prevent it for sure 
Yet some might think 
this is easy to sing and easy to say 
Gosh, but don't the world need more die-hard supporters 
of peace till judgement day? 

Keep the peace and spread it.!! 
Do your bit, come use your wit. 
Swat and squash the hate bug from your mind and heart 
Promote love and compassion even with words and art

I like assonance writing... I prefer writing short poems myself and only enjoy reading big poems if they are good and this one was good good job

I LOVE this 'most difficult' subject matter to convey poetically......nonetheless a brilliant attempt with fine word choices creating some very powerful phrasing that truly resonates in the dark realms of Hate & Mindcraft!!…...VERY well crafted dear poet friend!!…….ALL STARS!!……..LOVE & ROCKETS!!…...T xo

A powerful message and well written. Yes the world would work so much better with love around rather than hate. Good topic to talk about. There is still work to be done in this world. Thanks for sharing it. Px

Warm thanks for comment, oh yes a lot more needs to be done to promote peace and expose those who really are terrorising humanity with false deceptive covers and facades. I'm glad that no terrorists are really Muslims and that Muslims vouch for peace everywhere. Take care.
