The poem ‘No Men are Foreign’ has greater relevance in today’s world. There are a lot of fights and disasters in and out of every country. The wars are always there between countries for one matter or the other. This has totally affected world peace and harmony. No one wants to be defeated by the other.
No one bothers about the damage caused to the countries and the loss of lives of a lot of people. People pay more attention to the differences and shoot troubles always. As there is no love and spirit of brotherhood, they wage war every now and then. Enmity and hatred must be given to maintain peace and harmony.
