Life,which is full of contrasts.



Life,which is full of contrasts.

Once my place was inundated.
I found water everywhere
but not a drop to drink
and my thirst wasn't abated.

I saw a mother, enraptured.
Tears were dropping from her eyes.
These were the tears of happiness
when her son returned from the war after long period.

I was delighted to see the drizzling
when the sun was still smiling
and the trees were standing,
taking the bath of dry and moist mixing.

I thought and thought
and evaluated the life
which is full of contrast.
