They may be with different color, .
Different height and face.

Yes, wonderful sentiment - but which language would we choose, this in itself would cause dispute I fear! We need to speak the language of love, the rest would then follow.

A wonderful poem and I loved the topic. First time I am reading a poem on this particular topic. I liked the way you presented this issue. Very true said, language is really a barrier and there is lot of difficulty in communicating with each other. Though we tell there is unity in diversity. Loved reading it. Thanks for sharing with us.

Thank You Amitava for wanting to join us as one. Sadly so many are not even wanting to speak. They are just full of greed and hatred. Thanks too for your Poet Notes.

The language of eyes..the language of grief , the language of pain, the language of poverty...you can understand and this is the basic..yet we have many languages to put one above another..if there is a single language than no one can abuse... there will be Dogsdom..yet its easy to learn the slang, thank you

Your concern here is so genuine.....! Yes, language is a big barrier..... but we can't help! Even in this diversity, there is a common language... the language of love which everyone can understand! A great write, Amitava!

I agree.Once Esperanto was introduced as a universal language.But, it's not in vogue.I heard this.Thanks for this sweet poem of fraternity and brotherhood.

I agree entirely with the sentiment in this poem. However this world is divided not only by language. There are those that have and those that have not. Those that have, the rulers, are united under one God, they worship money. Their God is money. The rest of us are divided, we are divided by religion, for instance. Unless the ordinary, working, class people of this world can unite under one banner we have no hope. Language may be a start, but it will not be enough. This world was created for us all to share, at the moment we are allowing greed to destroy it. Divide and rule.

Every language is a temple in which the soul of those who speak it is enshrined. I don't remember the name but a learned man had said it. The universal language of love spoken by the bodies of not only men but by animals, too, is already there. Promote this language that's all we can do.

Amazing and brilliant poem, Amitava. You have made an excellent point in your poem, you may unite the world yet with your poetry. It makes so much sense, why haven't people done this already. This is a major move forward in also ridding the world of prejudice. With an understanding of language, we could communicate better with one another, it would level the playing field so to speak. You are making a difference in this world one poem at a time, Amitava. Thank you for sharing. RoseAnn
