A slight adversity like a storm,
one small problem like thunder,
terribly shakes us and makes us wonder:
what could I do? How can I cope

Those who have read and took this message to heart will not only look through a wider lens, but they will first remove their blinders. Great poem, great message.
You are a great poet. Keep it up.I suppose experience has thought you to look through a wider lens.
Wider lens but also not on ourselves constantly. If we treat ourselves as gods than any problem, minor or major, will appear as unbearable. The key is to redirect such lens (like you suggested in your poem) on someone else maybe in need. By nature, we are selfish and we need to become more altruistic. Good work! !
Your profound knowledge always amazes and delights me. Excellent poem
Wow Sir, I feel motivated now...You are a great thinker and a great writer.. loved the last 2 lines...infact the whole poem is brilliant
love and live your troubles and never say I am done.....I said in one of my poems. Most of us who are sensible and sensitive feel the same way. The difference is that our expressions are different but medium is our poetry. How wonderful! Isn't it so. Your story-like poem is really interesting.
that's wonderful and meaningful...you are very wise which made your poem interesting.good take off and a safe landing. thanks for sharing (please read my poem 'plants in agony')
Yes, this is totally meaningful and wise poem! ! I can see wisdom and hope through your lines...You know, i have mentioned this sentence'look through a wider lens' in my latest poem.read it and dropp your valuable comment. Great Work! :)
What a meaningful write! We need to broaden our perspective, and meet someone elses need. Have a more outward approach. Well penned, Well done!
You're really a very good writer, you chose words that fits the theme, very properly used. Oh, I like the salt, glass and river. It turns out the problem was in the container. The line gave me a little creased in my face. A big applause for this.
That is indeed a great one. I like the story of the salt in the glass and the salt in the river very much. The problem is the container. How true, open up, use a bigger lens. I am sure many of the readers will find this one extremely useful. I think it has the power to be a life changing poem, very melodiously written.. Thanks a lot Amrit.
well-composed... definitely instills in the readers a new perspective....add a wider dimension...to the scheme of things! !
