Flowers of Unity

Flowers of Unity

Nine black roses in a crystal vase,
Absorb lights spectrum out of deep space,
Blind to the differences that cause discrimination,
The see the various hues as a single race.

Nine brown orchids in a crystal vase,
Absorb part of light's spectrum out of deep space,
Blind to the differences that cause alienation,
They make no class distinctions.

Nine multicolored flowers in a crystal vase,
Absorb part of light's spectrum out of deep space,
Blind to the differences that cause isolation,
They see science and religion as the wings of civilization.

Nine white carnations in a crystal vase,
Reflect lights spectrum back into space,
Blind to the differences which cause separation,
They see in the various religions progressive revelation.

Nine yellow daisies in a crystal vase,
Reflect part of light's spectrum back into space,
Blind to the differences that cause segregation,
They see the planet as a single nation.

Nine red tulips in a crystal vase,
Reflect part of light's spectrum back into space,
Blind to the differences that cause disaffection,
They see the different genders as the the wings of civilization.
