As he wander and cannot sleep with eyes closed. He walks barefoot, with his feet on the dewcovered Grass, the shepherd boy, with a plough and cloth protecting his shoulders, He walks to the field before sunrise. He has to walk miles down the hill, With clothes in colorful bursts As winter comes for the Babus! The laborers, the poor are always poor. They have to endure hardships with masked smile.
Open your eyes, oh ye rich people The poor around you are helpless. Those in your service are suffering on cold nights. They are suffering in sleepless pains. They walk with hungry eyes before sunrise. Ones go to golden fields to worship Maa Lakshmi. Unselfishly holding ond to faith as savior..!!!

Yes! The collaborative poem connects with the theme of light and shadow. Analysis of the Poem The poem directly addresses the theme of light and shadow both literally and figuratively. It uses the contrast to explore concepts like creation, balance, emotion, and human nature. Here is a breakdown of how the poem connects to the theme: Creation and Balance: The first stanza uses the “shadows” as the origin of creation, with beauty being born “into light.” This sets up the idea that light and dark aren’t just opposites, but are intertwined and necessary for a balanced whole. Metaphor for Emotions: The poem extends the metaphor to human experience, comparing “pathos” (suffering, emotion) and “richness of soul” to opposing sides of a coin. This parallels the relationship between light and shadow, suggesting that both are essential parts of our inner world. Literal and Figurative Light Sources: The poem mentions the sun and moon as literal sources of light and shadow, but also gives them metaphorical roles. The sun’s “ablutions” and the moon’s “passions” are presented as forces that “coincide in stabilizing” the world. This reinforces the idea of balance between contrasting elements. The Unavoidable Shadow: The second poem brings in the personal, unavoidable nature of a shadow. The line, “Wherever you may go your shadow stays with you,” emphasizes that our “shadow” or darker side is an intrinsic part of us, a constant companion. This suggests that we cannot escape the duality of light and dark within ourselves. The poem consistently uses the duality of light and shadow to represent other opposing concepts like chaos and order, emotion and soul, and the divine and the mundane. The recurring idea is that these forces are not meant to be separated but exist in a state of interdependence, contributing to a harmonious or “mellow” whole.

Collaborative poem Malak Kalmoni Chehab & Drvikas Arora Canada India Theme: Light and shadow
Within the shadows, creation came from chaos A reign out of which beauty was born Into light, where balance isn’t a horn That divides but embraces the two sides, pathos
And richness of soul, are opposing Sides of the same coin of emotions, Equipoised similarly to sun’s ablutions And the moon’s passions coincide in stabilizing
