U R Poem by Ivana Valasik

U R

Rating: 4.0


You are
the very first
wrong thing
that feels
right

the very first
light
that is
dark

the very first
joy
that breaks
my heart

the very first
sadness
that makes me
laugh

the ultimate
paradox
of my life

You are!

Wonderful poem! It perks along running on its own bouncy energy. There's not a wasted word to slow it down. The three paradoxes in the first three stanzas are provocative. I'll have to ponder them in the near future; there's wisdom in those pithy items.
