The banks of a river
Every river has two banks
like pains and pleasures
joys and sorrows
love and peace
Two banks of river
makes an eloquent appeal
to flow ever and ever
devoid of two banks
the existence of river diminishes
Like two banks of river
help it to flow, the life also flows
within its two banks
otherwise, it will diminish.

the two banks of river indicating two different faces of life. you are a nice human being and a wonderful friend with no limits or conditions.
In your poems I can see a far sighter who observe the world in a unique way.
nice work. God Bless You!
Challenges go with which side you are incumbent upon.People wants not to see life flooded otherwise with troubles.Flood could well be symbolics of money being earned and drought could well be free access to land which is nowaday a water management drudgery in India.Researches show rivers breaking parts of India specially Jalangi and making parts of thatched huts and muds in Bangladesh.Written well in this context.
Great poem! Wonderful analogy!
woo! this is a great poem. my life, any life also consists of both sides. lets be aware of that thanks for share.
Nice poem with logic
Nice to read too...10
Every coin has two sides
Angles different and wide
Nothing to conceal or nothing to hide
Life as such is cleverly denied
You are at mercy
Believe in him and obey as almighty
Either chooses between good and bad
Later on regret and feel sad
such a broad concept, running between two banks of the river! help it to flow, the life also flows! The call for humanity! Great!
