TWO SIDES

 

Dr. J. Bapu Reddy, IAS (Rtd.)

 

Birth is one side

death is the other

in the leaf of human life

 

Day is one side

night is the other

in the falling leaf of time.

 

Space is one side

time is the other

in the infinite leaf of creation

 

Dream is one side

reality is the other

for the human eye that can perceive

 

There is no leaf with only one side

there is no river, with only one bank

there is indeed nothing alone

everything is dual

even God is not alone.
