A Black And Bright Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

A Black And Bright

Rating: 4.3


Black represents sign of bad omen
It may come at any time for man or woman
It is also called defeatist views
We must come out of it with constant reviews

It always reminds us of constant failure
Nothing seems or looks bright for future
You may still try to come over with crippled wings
It lands you in with more problems or brings

The term itself is expression of bad luck
We can do nothing except to sit as lame duck
It may always remind you of bleak prospect
It may require boldness to face and act

It also represents sunny side and looks very fine
How little stars appear in dark night and shine?
Darkness gives more room for them to show their presence
How comparison can be made in its absence?

Two sides can never be compared
Success can be failure even if well prepared
Failure may look quite good even if not focused
It may envy interest if passion is roused

There has to be great enthusiasm is for any act
This is very essential and undeniable fact
How best can we turn failure into success?
If we come out of black shadow and face

It is of no use to live under gloomy nature
We are consenting downfall with our own signature
Who else can come to your rescue and take you to safety?
We are only to be blamed and have self pity

It should never be half hearted attempt
You should be energetic, active and very prompt
You may come across unseen setbacks
It may force you to prepare keep awake

Light may not remain forever and darkness may descend
Treachery and deception may not work all the times and you will have to mend
It is cycle that repeats at regular interval
It should be greeted with equal enthusiasm upon its arrival


Success or failure, black and light form integral part
They may not be felt from the very beginning or from the start
They may permanently associate with your style of functioning
It may then be known as bright or weak beginning

Both the sides have got their own sphere
Even nature adopts it so the atmosphere
Moon shines and remains at her zenith
Who knows the facts lying beneath?

Stars shine in their own way
They have nothing to do with bright ray
Both function with same spirit and zeal
The fact remains fact and can’t be concealed

...just so as mentioned before me Vijay...to me also remind a bit philosophical tractate...or rather Shakespeare' s 'To be or not to be? ? ? ' (that is a question) I like this ine verse: 'Success or failure, black and light form integral part They may not be felt from the very beginning or from the start'

Black is indeed bright! I like the alliteration.It is a world replete with opposites that complement one another.A good poem.
