PERFECTLY IMPERFECT
Poem by Bharat P. Bedi
Nothing is perfect,
in this beautiful perfect world,
perfection is an illusion,
creating surreal mirage
of pristine perfection,
by cohesive play
of various species
specific imperfections,
beautifully captivating us,
to ignore imperfections,
enchanting us to be
enamored by their grit,
admiring survival instincts,
abilities to overcome
shortcomings of beings;
In this perfect world,
nothing is perfect,
imperfection is all around,
some walk some fly,
some live under water,
some live under ground,
some slither some slide,
some drag some crawl,
some are swift some agile,
some have grace,
some have pace,
some are sturdy,
some entwin to grow,
some lumber, some trundle,
some are sloppy some droopy;
In this perfect world,
nothing is perfect,
some have hands,
to grab opportunities,
some have strength,
to subdue opponents;
some have wings,
to soar high,
touch the sky,
some are rooted
to the ground,
sprouting colors of life,
spreading sweet
fragrance of love,
blossoming providing,
food to live a healthy life;
Nobody is perfect,
nothing is perfect,
in this perfect world,
nature teaches us a lesson,
to ignore faults,
not to rue shortcomings,
hankering for perfection,
will give us a life of rut,
to live a peaceful
harmonious fruitful life,
improve on strength,
we should accept our own,
as well as accept
others imperfections,
helping each other,
by optimally utilizing
on what we have got.
