The Why & The Why Not?



The why of a beggar’s hungry stare?
But the why not of a compassionate heart?
The why of a quirk of fate?
But the why not of hope?
The why of scurry?
But the why not of serenity?
The why of I am always right?
But the why not of I can be wrong?
The why of vanity?
But the why not of humility?
The why of me?
But the why not of you?

  1. Oooooo! When did my twin turn into this? For someone who cannot appreciate poetry that well, it is perfect. The way I like poems. Short and strong. No beating around the bush.

    Cheers!

  3. inspiring and vague in portraying like impressionist', appreciated for brevity. some part of the beauty gets lost in the string recurring patterns; you could write cool poems for mind i suppose.
