Raja's Insight 
We might not practice the motto “All for one, and one for all,” as such practices are philosophically tall. But when we look past those things we call differences, we can more fully appreciate our universal similarities. This poem suggests the world’s strife can more easily be managed when we choose to stand together for humanity.
Title: Together
You are my brother
and i, your sister
yet we live in countries
where culture consistently divides.
Separated by miles of unfair gain
opportunity is rolled by political dice
you live in a brick house
while my mud hut
… melts in the rain.
What isolated scale of justice
tells me my fate
and who it is that I should hate?
Our philosophies might not blend
but its our mutual respect
and humanity’s name
that gives us the chance
of inequality to mend.

Will You Love Me
Will you hate me if I write a bad poem,
if my words cannot find a home?
If I’m pushed from the in crowd,
to the sidelines,
where my paper smile
gets tossed into the trash?
Or will you love me,
when my pen is silent,
when my looks dim,
and my enthusiasm wanes?
Will you love me into old age?
Will you love me
if there’s nothing going for me
but my pulsating heart?

Friends
They say a friend
in need is a friend indeed
and I have had
a few of those
over the years
but the best friend
of all
in the entire universe
is you my love
my wife
and my eternal bride
and we will be friends
forever to the ends
of time
