The world is “paired” in two,
    As if she didn't “knew” !

She is sick of this “advice”
    From every Aunt, ally and allies -
              Go find your “mate”
             And trust your “fate”
“How ab’t fixing a steamy coffee date?”
(It always ends up in Checkmate)

But instead ( Read more... )

Glad to have you back with the poem ...... All said and done I always enjoy yours for being so concise and precise. Loved the rhymes and the possible and probable meaning to the end words. Well Done with the prompt. :)

She could always tell those aunts and allies that being single isn't always a bad thing. ;) Who needs a man, anyway??

I have the impression that "aunt" is an honorific in India, not necessarily an actual aunt. And so often, a meddler. :O

Most people are not single because they "forgot" to get married! It's because they haven't met the right person (which can be possibly aided but not guaranteed or forced), or they have no desire to be married.

Not that aunties and others ever seem to understand that!

Ah! you summed it up really well..:)..Yup "Aunt" is any middle aged lady older to you in India..:P and they sure are nosy and meddlesome....:D
Glad it conveyed those feelings..Thanks a ton for stopping by..<3
