A DIALOGUE
BETWEEN ‘DAY AND NIGHT’
Lo! I am the
‘Booned Son’ of the Mother Nature,
Beyond belief is
my indescribable Stature!
Lives endure as I
lovingly nourish and nurture,
Yes, I do spread
happiness, and sprinkle rapture!
I thoroughly comply
with you, my dear younger brother:
You are brighter
on Earth even than brightness,
I am your elder
Sister, darker even than darkness,
You are the
diurnal Ambrosia; I am the nocturnal Nectar!
But, you are
distinguishable only due to my essential existence!
Ah! Without me!
How could creatures have felt the difference?
I am the much
needed refresher, energy booster and pain-reliever
Oh! Without me! Lives
would have been surely drearier and duller!
Let us, hence, fall
out no more over our superiority and inferiority.
Let our
respective selfless and inevitable service be the topmost priority!
Glossary:
Endure –
continue/last
Diurnal – of
the day/related to day
Nocturnal - of
the night/ related to night
Fall out – argue/
have a fight
