COMPARISON

COMPARISON

Lo! I am the indispensable comparison,
Everyone's very own.
I was simultaneously born,
On the very birthday of the creation!

At my inevitable arrival,
The reasonable become so glad,
But, the unreasonable feel too sad,
Both of them pray for my survival!

Yes, I am as prevalent as air,
When alloyed with prejudice and discrimination,
I turn more pernicious than poison,
But, when weighed on the scale of neutrality, I do care!

Let me be construed as the six Indian Seasons,
Let my service be concluded as useful in legions!
Let me never be charged with a treacherous treason,
Let me never be put to suffocate in an ignoble prison!

N.B. Dear friends, my poems can be read by searching "The Poetry of Shankar D Mishra" on Google. Tq.
