Contradictions

Clicked a beautiful photograph from my balcony this morning with Sun and Moon in the same frame. This triggered certain thoughts in my mind that I converted into a brief verse:

Morning Sun gobbles up the moon,

And Moon reappears only after Sun drowns;

But itโ€™s not impossible for the two of them to appear together,

Though such an event does raise frowns!

If nature is so flexible and so accommodating,

How come humans are so rigid and fanatic;

Divided based on religion, caste, creed and gender,

Sticking to their beliefs and thoughts as if these are prophetic!

Nature has so much for us to learn, if we are open and ready.

  1. Well said Mr. Arvind .
    Mankind has to learn to so many things from nature . That is why it is said God created nature & other creatures first before He created Human beings .
    But unfortunately human beings instead of learning so many things from nature destroys nature . Sad indeed.
    One has to regularly connect with Nature .
