English, a language
spoken in a stage
with the British accent
and the American diction
all confuse the Asians
who go by the British spellings
write colour with a “u ”
while the Americans omit the “u ”
the realisation could have
both “s” and “z” in U.K
while the Americans go with only “z.”
there be not only these
hundreds of differences
come with a force and aplomb
Yet the rolling of the tongue
and the emphasis on certain letters
give English a universal fervour
again the culprit “u” crosses
that way the language goes about
grows not less but more
with the acceptance of all words
from all languages across the world
a collection of words all through
making it the most populous one
Oh! let us acclaim English
Let us salute the language
. with a veneration and honour.
