APRIL-11
                                           courtesy : Google image

Wisteria vines
Stand for immortality
With poison in pods

Political men
Promise a garden of rose
And thorns intended

Young couples get spliced
Beneath the lavender-glow
Best wishes for them

    I like the balance between hope/beauty and the dark/dangerous in this piece! Nice write!

    Wisteria really is quite beautiful, and if I remember correctly, it has a strong smell.. I like the poem :)

    Ouch! Like a sheathed dagger. Makes me think of Romeo and Juliet a little. Great writing!

    Some interesting - and eternal - contrasts here, Sumana.
