THE YIN YANG by Kunle Adebajo

THE YIN YANG by Kunle Adebajo

THE YIN YANG!

White is wise and wonderful

Red cannot be compared

Black is bold and beautiful

For Yellow, a lot have yearned


Short is sure not the same as shallow

And tall does not make one above faults

Fat is merely full of fair overflow

And slim is simply sleek by default

Yin Yang!

Yin Yang!

They who are mighty and huge

Have none but the weak to thank

As there can be no light or good

If dark and evil ain’t there to contend


Whether up North or way down

Friend, do not ever fret or frown

Life is not a pillow of flowing feathers

Rather a window it is to many weathers


Sometimes it hurls the yin

Other times we get a yang

This all makes for a glorious win

If we embrace every bit, fin or fang
