Walls are built
To keep the unwanted
Away, but in reality
It may not be true.
Every wall turns
Weaker with time
Whatever's kept away
Will find a way to enter.
All the walls of time
Ended up in ruins
Even the Great Wall
Is no exception.
Berlin wall that stood
Fell as freedom arrived
Its pieces now remain
As souvenirs to keep.
Walls also keep
The desirable away
One'll feel isolated
And feel lonely in life.
Build a wall with care
Remove odds of seclusion
And keep some ways open
To bring everyone together.
Build a wall with care Remove odds to seclusion And keep some ways open To bring everyone together A perfect lesson learnt as inference from the poem Mending Walls composed by the master spirit. Thanks for sharing.10 points. Regards. Ratnakar Mandlik
Walls are always means of estrangement. Man is a social being. If separated by walls he will find himself lonely. Even if walls are built, there should be openings to admit our friends! A very practical view of life strengthened by experience!

Build a wall with care Remove odds of seclusion And keep some ways open To bring everyone together...virtuous expression dear poet.
