Rating: 4.7

I went to a house and walked up to the gate
A man came outside and his name was called Hate
He asked me a question would you like to come in?
I then thought for a moment hate is no kin

I looked at Hate with the blink of an eye You'll live in this house until the day you die ......../// beautifully penned, beautiful expression yeah; no room no room for hate in the heart of love those who know love never know how to hate if anyone says he/she is in love but he/she hates after a while then take an understand that it is not love......! !

Great message! The story, though, I felt was a little contrived. Good on balance.

Your personification of HATE is a cunning character. He knows immediately he can't intimidate you, or scare you into hating another person. So his approach is quiet, even charming. He offers a gift but you have already X-rayed his intentions, and he gives up. It's so easy to defeat hate: you just need good character, strength of will, and solid virtue. In other words: Be a good person and Hate cannot touch you! Your poem is a moral tale we need to heed.

Reminds me of Edgar Allen Poe! chilling! I think its my favorite, even though the topic is dark. In the end, good wins over evil though. What a great writer she is!

loved this conversational piece and enjoyed very much. Hate is with in us, we just have to be care full to keep it in check.

Superbly crafted the verses is just flow like a majestic river, although the subject is not so pleasing, reminds me of the story of Buddha and the mara, he was tormented by all vices of evil but fought back. There are to many boarders who dwell in that cabin. A great job!
