LOVE IS A BIG TRAP
A poem by Ranjit K. Sahu
Look no beyond the gardens of mid-spring
On a day filled with the fragrance of flowers
Vibrant in their colored petals they sing
Enthused by the passions of fresh lovers.
Invitations for romance fly in air,
Scattering the bees among the blossoms
And many end up in solemn affairs
Buried in hugs of luscious flush bosoms.
Intense feelings oft drag a yearning heart,
Grabbing its beats and tying it in false bonds,
Tethered to commitments it falls apart,
Reeling in tragedy as it desponds
Agonized in spider webs some bees die
Paying a price for love they truly try !
