Contrasts of life experience, contrariety of emotions, feelings and understandings, under different circumstances have been so nicely described in this poem. Loved reading it.
Once chill and cold! ! ! ! But to hold on to the truth. Thanks for sharing this poem with us.
A true picture of contradictions in life with alternate incoming of joy and grief and taking the life in it's strides, being the only solution. A great life song.
