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
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
