The Happiness of Contrast
There’s no in with an out, no up without a down.
There’s no dark without a light, no smile without a frown.
There’s no give without a take, no sorrow without joy,
No storm without calm, no girl without a boy.
There’s no roar without a hush, no cold without a hot,
No yes without a no, no is without a not.
There’s no courage without fear, no wet without a dry,
No laughter without tears, no sell without a buy.
There’s no curve without a straight, no begin without an end,
No music without silence, no borrow without lend.
There’s no hard without a soft, no go without a stop.
There’s no rough without a smooth, no lift without a drop.
There’s no evil without goodness, no clean without a stain.
There’s no hard without an easy, no healing without pain.
There’s no knowledge without ignorance, no low without a high,
No warring without peace, no truth without a lie.
There’s no doubt without faith, no lost without found,
No full without empty, no square without round.
There’s no ugly without beautiful, no old without new.
There’s no wrong without right, no me without you.
