Wrong and Right
May 1, 2011
What is this combination of syllables that I always hear?
The right I am rewarded for
The wrong brings punishment I fear
But what is wrong and what is right?
One is day and one is night.
The right is happy, just like a sunny day
All the troubles just melt away
The wrong is dark, just like night
Bringing out hatred and fright
A transformation made by Man
To mark the difference between can’t and can
But I learn from all wrongs, as I prosper from my right
Maybe neither one is dark and neither one is bright

Excellent thoughts! Your use of rhyming adds a certain fluency to these intruiging ideas!

Chee, this poem is rather pensive. I like your usage of verbal contrast.
