The Brighter Side Of Things Poem by Aniruddha Pathak

The Brighter Side Of Things

Rating: 5.0


A storm raged and picked up tearing pace
Knocking down sun-shed on my terrace,
Blessing bright Sun as boon,
At night a silver Moon,
Ah blizzards do wear a benign face!

" benign" storm? i hope you never see a malignant one! ! R U using " poetic license" with " blizzard" for a storm in India? most Americans probably picture India as having NO snow. Here a " blizzard" is a very strong, very visibility-limiting, long-lasting SNOW storm. bri ;) i have a " good heart" as you imply that Sylvia does. but she and i don't “see eye-to-eye”.

And it seems, you have taken up upon you not to see 'eye-to-eye with me either, but that is another point. Would not a world be such a dull place to be if every one would see that way? I enjoy your comments.

Dear Bri, even the purest of milk may carry some bacteria, and not all of them are bad either. Further, in 'on my terrace', my does not necessarily mean Aniruddha's who happens to be in India. Words are only means to an end. Yes, there is no doubt you do have a good heart, where is the question?

A wonderful limerick imbued with the wonders of Nature. The great Poet always writes his limerick with ease like this one. Beautifully and cleverly written.
