Duality Poem by Richard Betts

Duality

Rating: 5.0


The world is beautiful,
Life is fine.
The world is frightening,
And life is unkind.

The world is wonderful,
Life is magic.
The world is wicked,
And life is tragic.

The world is happy,
Life without a care.
The world is desperate,
And life is full of despair.

The world is funny,
More like funny-strange.
The world is constant,
Constantly full of change.

The world is full of goodness,
And I pray you find your share.
For the world is a fickle lover,
And life will be unfair.
