The Ambivalence Of Life Comments

This poem about life is a great philosophical poem astutely written by you. As per the inscriptions the title of the poem is appropriate. Life is grim challenges of trials and strife where misfortune, distress and betrayal are very rife. Life has to enjoy both sweet and sour. Well executed poem. A 10

This is the irrefutable truth, for sure That life can at once be sweet and sour! Thoughtful and beautiful as well.

Oh, I am so happy you mentioned this poem as an interesting and similar one to mine, as it is very moving and deeply felt of exactly what you had said~ that Life gives us both sides, the joys and the sorrows, the good with the bad~ and you said it in such a beautiful way, yet also the pain felt at times too. Loved this poem! and thank you!

fabulous dear valsa. life is not always what we expect it would be.the ending of this poem is what s going on in the reality.i fold my hand for the veneration as i read the other part of the world's revelation. ~nb

valsa, i like it, with reservations. i shall send a message to you. thanks for sharing and i hope you always remain one of the more fortunate inhabitants of this earth. the glory of creation is somewhat spoiled for me by the existence of suffering in some people's lives as you have mentioned above. bri

It's a lovely piece of writing woven into deep philosophy of life. You travel from fancy to reality-stark reality but don't lose hope and see oasis in the desert...no doubt life thorns but flowers too. I love it.

Sounding like William Wordsworth and nothing less! The beauty of the lines here is unique and what the lines speak can reverberate in the mind for long. One of your best pieces for sure.

Life can be sweet or sour and we must help people less fortunate than ourselves. A good poem Valsa.

I like it too, your talent precedes you, the message is one of respect with love for others, I commend you.

A beautiful poem of wonderful content, rhyme and rhythm captures the heart! Yes. Life can at once be sweet and sour- no denying the fact! As usual the stamp of Valsa is absorbing!

A Couplet-bound deep philosophical thought strain running, developing the spirit of submission and resignation for the acceptability of life as it is, as there's no denying the fact that life can be either good or bad, but we have to move on! ! !
