There Ain'T............... Poem by Meetika Srivastava

There ain’t a singing without a song, there ain’t a ringing without a bell.
There ain’t a seeing without a sight, there ain’t a hearing without a thought.
There ain’t a believing without a belief, there ain’t a suffering without a grief.
There ain’t a knowing without a truth, there ain’t a walking without a path.
There ain’t a growing without a seed, there ain’t a needing without a greed.
There ain’t a blessing without a gift, there ain’t a rowing without a shaft.
There ain’t a loving till you give it away; there ain’t defeating till you ‘give it’ away.
There ain’t thinking until doing there ain’t reading until writing there ain’t receiving until giving.
There ain’t a rising without a fall. There ain’t a burning without a blow.
There ain’t a beginning without an idea. There ain’t a living without a life.



Note: The above lines are inspired by an essay topic for a competition on which I couldn't attempt to write, at that point of time but somehow the words still echo in my mind and induced me to phrase it now.
