Mahatma Gandhi in Hind Swaraj or Indian Home Rule

"It is a bad habit to say that another man's thoughts are bad and ours only are good and that those holding different views from ours are the enemies of the country"

"The seed in never seen. It works underneath the ground, is itself destroyed,and the tree which rises above the ground is alone seen."

"The English have not taken India. We have given it to them. They are not in India because of their strength, but becaue we keep them."

"Humdug there undoubtedly is about all religions. Where there is light, there is also shadow."

"India cannot cease to be one nation because people belonging to different religions live in it. The introduction of foreigners does not necessarily destroy the nation, they merge in it. A country is one nation only when such a condition obtains in it."

"God set a limit to a man's locomotive ambition in the construction of his body. Man immediately proceeded to discover means of overriding the limit. God gifted man with intellect that he might know his Maker. Man abused it so that he might forget his Maker."

http://knol.google.com/k/spiros-kakos/knol-poetry-contest/2jszrulazj6wq/70

Bi-monthly poetry contest open to everyone.

How to participate
The process pf participating is very simple. Just submit your poem with a comment in this page! I will enter it into the Knol for everyone to see! The rules to be followed are simple:

Please submit poems that are written in English via comments in this page. Try to clearly state the contest for which you enter your poem in the title of the comment. Remember that comments are moderated so you may have to wait 1-2 days before you see your comment and poem posted here.
Please try to write small poems of 2-20 lines. Every size of poems is accepted, but you can understand that a poem of 2 pages is difficult to post in this limited space. Thanks for your understanding!
Please submitt original poems! I want your poems, not a copy-paste of poems written by others! I do not have the resources nor the time to verify that a poem posted here is original, but I hope everyone is so honest to follow this rule. After all the purpose of the contest is to have fun, not to win Nobel prize.
