The Difference Poem by ANJANDEV ROY

The Difference

Rating: 5.0


Two travellers were walking together,
Suddenly they saw a thing,
One traveller said,
'It's a beautiful thing, '
Another traveller said,
'It's an ugly thing, '
This way they began to quarrel,
After a while an old man appeared,
He was renowned for his wisdom,
He asked the travellers,
'Do you know the difference between beauty and ugliness? '
The two wayfarers remained silent,
Then the old man said to them,
'The difference is aptly written in your inner self,
Read it minutely
And then both of you will easily understand the true identity of the thing.'

It reminds me a little of Khalil Gibran's work. Wonderful!
