Compromise Poem by Ratnakar Mandlik

Compromise

Rating: 5.0


Once I told a cloud
Not to make sound loud
For it you are not allowed,
In time you have to rain.

I had to tell too to my mind
Not in the milieu to be blind
To accept reality you are bound,
Letting thy notions to drain.

I had to change the notions
The cloud too had to rain
The cloud's & my bargains
Lie bound in a chain.

Joy demands the only price
Nothing else but compromise.
