The greatest wars
The direst lies
The loveliest sonnets
The prettiest monuments
The envious binds
The covetous minds
The dreamiest phase
The rudest heartbreaks
The passionate bonds
The life changing reforms
The heavenly highs
The deadliest falls
Are all from love.

Pride
What are you so proud of?
Beauty? That’ll fade.
Sure, give them some years
Beauty? That’ll fade.
Over time, see what’ll be -
Of your tresses and your lovely eyes.
A spotless mind?
Then, may nature be kind
To keep you sane -
and not break you under pain.
A benevolent soul -
with impeccable ethos?
Sure, give them some years
And see what remains.
What is yours? What do you own?
Nothing really - not even your homes!
Empty pots, with faltering egos
Yet, brimming with so much pride!Sunday, January 6, 2019
Au Revoir
He said he loved her
She gave a smile, weak
He said he was true
To trust him, she was keen
He said she's home now
She heaved a sigh, weary
He said she had to let go
And let her emotions flow.
He said he was different
A different lover! She would see!
She flashed her dimpled smile
Her way to show she disagreed.
After all you are a man
A man who's young and free.
A man who's had his past
A bright future too, it will be.
He sensed her wee disbelief
And she saw his growing grief
Wiping a tear off his eyes
Offered him warmth from her, deep
Walking out a door, once more
She pinned a note, from her core
She kept her poetry brief
Writing "Even poems evade me...
A lover true, you are indeed
And eventually fate will lead
You to a maiden, pretty
Alone, awaiting your company
With her you'll find your nest
With her you'll forget me
For that, I'll have to leave
Because we will never be".

The Affair
He claimed, only for her, he had eyes...
And then went hearting all cleavages, he found online.
She promised him, her love for a lifetime...
And waited for his deep slumber to chat with her new life line.
Every year end, a happy picture of them, friends received
Her in his arms, and their child in between.
What a happy team, why can't we also be?
Cribbed wives, and men, across families!
