RHYME Poem: What’s the Difference, by Yashika Chaudhary

Prayers rise like mountain dew
One prays by clasping hands,
Other by entwining hands like vines,
Someone pleads almighty placing hands side by side,
Surrendering themselves.
Their path differ
Their language differ
But the question is
What’s the difference
In their devotion
For the only one
That’s the final destination.

Some seek guidance in Bhagwad Geeta,
Some in Quran,
Some in Bible,
Reading words of wisdom noble.
Divine messages enlightens a human,
With endless thoughts,
Like sun that lightens the endless sky.
River of love and compassion flowing from
the sacred pages, timeless and wise
Yet the question remains:
What’s the difference

In the books
When the message is one,
Leading to the one,
The final destination.

Everyone seeking blessings from the only one,
With variety of names.
Everyone leading to same destination,
Through different paths, with patience.
The final question remains:
What’s the Difference
In everyone’s God.
If not,
Why drops of blood
stain their paths.
The question still remains
What’s the Difference?
