Women are Like That

June 10, 2024

Women are Like That
When she says a yes
There could be a no
Stealthily sneaking
Like a flake of snow

And the no could be a no
You ought to decipher
Else you could burn
Like a ball of camphor

Behind that shaky no
Hides a Yes
Oh Man! The reason
Could you even guess!

That firm yes
Confirms, do not mess
Trespassing it
Could invite distress

Women are like that
And they ought to be
Delectably vexatious
That is the beauty

    "Every day, I experienced mischie⁶f, perhaps I will have to endure it for a life time". Your poetry somewhere reminds me of Gulzar.
