Tentative Tempests

Why must I beg pardon? Has been our great question; When you and I battle, Vessels at home rattle; I say yes; you say no, Matters so silly though; I swear; you swear; sourly, Dogs and cats laugh wholly... You are old; I am old, Our looks have turned ice-cold; Ego, yet, like a spring, In us, plays monarch-swing... When we ask each other, At end of each whether; We find the same reason, Yet pour the same treason... In the end, it's a jest, Our true love, dear, does quest, To explicitly test, Whose love is best of best...! 08 April 2022

Your fine poem was written with wit and humor, Christuraj. I loved expressions like 'Ego, yet, like a spring, In us, plays monarch-swing...' Have a great day, Evelyn

"Ego, yet, like a spring, In us, plays monarch-swing..." Ego is the cause of most of the tempests in the family and all human relationships ! If we are able to annihilate ego, all disquiet and squabbles will subside ! Beautiful poem Chris !
