A cold shoulder,
A warm hug.
An icy smile,
An affectionate touch.
A strong hand,
A bare smug.
A comforting presence,
A resounding absence.
Many a doors opened,
And a quite few closed.
Lots of love to brew,
A cold morning, without dew.
A desert storm,
A warm shower.
Flakes of snow,
Dark in the night, they glow.
A spirit to belie,
Causes strife, so silly.
Sharp as a knife,
All this is Life.

P.S. Life is a contradiction. Life is an antithesis.

ReplyDeleteNice:-)
ReplyDeleteAnd your poem brilliantly reminds us how much life is a contradiction!
ReplyDeleteThose opposing forces are all what's life, you have to have both light and dark to give the contrasts that we crave.
ReplyDeleteIt is all of those things, indeed, in unending moments.
ReplyDeleteThe yin and yang of life expressed here -Bravo!
ReplyDeleteVery good writing, all the things and more in life.
ReplyDeleteYes, this IS what life is all about indeed.
ReplyDeleteAll this and more. It is how we react to life that is important coping with the bad and rejoicing with the good.
ReplyDeletelife defined so poetically, full of icy smile [:(] and warm hugs [:D]....
ReplyDeleteYes - life is all those things - beautifully condensed
ReplyDeleteAnd if that is not the all of life, it may well be the most important part.
