Mattress, a Buttress of Joy

MATTRESS, A BUTTRESS OF JOY It has been measured To the test of time True to its form and shape But now it has been reserved For sometime in the future You’ll be in use Again and again the longings and assurance Its intent and purpose Can ever resist to accommodate Persistent urge So elaborate to give No misgivings no misfortunes Must be pure for joyous moment of love!
