Yin and Yang

Yin And Yang




                             Wickedness can manifest itself amidst

                              extreme calm or utmost serenity

                              Righteousness overcomes adversity in

                              the heart of disarray and inequity

One never can truly tell what is behind her smile, joy or pain? Don't judge a book by it's cover...maybe, but whats on the cover? Do some wear their frowns upside down? What a powerful poem, that really made me think Anselmo. Glad to have found.

Profound thoughts, dear Anselmo ! Appearances are often deceptive and under a calm veneer, sometimes brutality hides. But righteousness can quell even the most violent storms

Good and evil is a constant battle that has raged since the beginning of our time. IT's a battle we must win. Blessings

The present world situation is a testament to what you voiced out Victor, and agreeably, there has to be more positiveness happening on our planet, otherwise it might tilt towards extreme chaos! Thanks for the visit...ab

Your well-written poetry gives readers fuel for thinking! Anselmo, you've written a poem that is both thought-provoking and enjoyable. The yin and yang are famous in Chinese medicine.
