If you have material and equipment, Build the Bridge and not the Wall.

For the ones who are in-charge of building relationships,
With your cementing, build no walls,
Rather build bridges...

Do remember,
You are not here forever,
But your works will remain,
Do the ones that will contain
The lively messages that can sustain the relationships.

Seasons will come, Seasons will recede,
There will be Sun at all times,
Sometimes scorching, other times soothing.
There will be cold,
Sometimes smothering, other times being sought.

Walls may stand tall, but they are weak;
They design enemies and fear
They can't stand long.
While bridges create friendly zones,
And hence they are strong.

Build no walls that can't be climbed,
Rather build bridges that can be walked on,
The ones that can be walked along.

Whether at homes, in business or on the road,
Build connecting bridges even across separate cabins,
Keep a centre place where all are welcome,
A place that echoes laughter amidst work silence,
A place that calls to visit on special occasions,
A place that is free from all restrictions,
A place that knows only to create cheerful experience,
A place where memories from past, moments of present and belief for future
Know the significance and beauty of happy ends
Holding bridge at separate ends.

Where there are walls, there are strains,
Where there are bridges, there are blissful rains.

Build no walls that can't be climbed,
Rather build bridges that can be walked on,
The ones that can be walked along.
The ones that witness fond memory lanes,
And become a lovely landscape for the picture frames.
