Thank you Richard for this poem that really sets you to think of the right and the wrong.
You're most welcome, Geeta. Always therapeutic for me to write such poetry. And I hope it's of some benefit to the readers.

Much thought went into your sincerely worded response of such wisdom. I am very grateful to you for having taken the time to do that.
Good times and bad times are part and parcels of this life's journey. To enjoy good times even more we need to encounter tough times/sad days. Nicely written poem. Full *****
