Tolerance: A Response To Diversity

The sea of humanity with waves so diverse

Makes me muse do I have the prowess?

To bear the onslaught of varied vibes

From cultures unknown and alien tribes

Whilst bear upon senses a myriad hues

A buoyant sense of warmth paints my views

‘Do as you would done by’ says the wise maxim

Forbearance in my being wells to the brim

Yet another soul in the Almighty maker’s image

With an innate need to be understood sans umbrage

I reach out, a smile in my eyes, a song on my lips

Joy abounds and mirrors in all my relationships

This amazing country, the UAE with tolerance as its core!

Blessed in so many ways, do we need anything more?

May this happy land be an epitome of qualities so great

I pray to the Almighty, for other nations to emulate.
