I can relate to the theme of universal love and compassion sort of a Zen Buddhist thing going on in this poem well done no doubt the universe would approve of it

Comment from Fonda Little
My favorite part was, "infinitely congenial", because that would be wonderful if everyone was pleasent to one another!
The Lord led me to these verses after I read this,
Proverbs 3:13-18 New International Version (NIV)
13 Blessed are those who find wisdom,
those who gain understanding,
14 for she is more profitable than silver
and yields better returns than gold.
15 She is more precious than rubies;
nothing you desire can compare with her.
16 Long life is in her right hand;
in her left hand are riches and honor.
17 Her ways are pleasant ways,
and all her paths are peace.
18 She is a tree of life to those who take hold of her;
those who hold her fast will be blessed.

The title is inviting and draws your reader's interest. The image makes it seem "other-worldly," and the words seems to promise a very happy place where "freedom and neutralism" are the rule. Thanks for sharing that your muse was the pledge of allegiance.

Inspiring but not pragmatic.
A utopia that has never been achieved.
It is possible for people to aspire to universal equality, and live their lives accordingly, and derive benefits. However history is against us.
George Orwell wrote, "1984."
Thematically, Nineteen Eighty-Four centres on the consequences of government over reach, totalitarianism, mass surveillance, and repressive regimentation of all persons and behaviours within society.[2][3] More broadly, it examines the role of truth and facts within politics and their manipulation.
That is where we are. Reality is hard to swallow because of the bitter taste of history.
We must seek to achieve your inspiration in this dimension.
Stay well.

This was a very creative take on the pledge of allegiance, I actually recognized that as I read it before I saw your author's notes. Very nice job.
