Wedding Bells ring
Ring placed on her finger
Fingers placed in her husbands
Husbands kiss on her lips
Lips curved up smiling in happiness
Happiness not because she met the man of her dreams
Dreams have finally produced a sigh of relief
Relief that now, all the aunties will finally give her a break
Haha...her first point of joy..aunties will finally "free her"...the sad reality in our country today.
ReplyDeleteIt would take a long time to discuss the issues your last statement raises in my mind...
*sigh*
So sad o. Unfortunately, it is a reality for many.
DeleteWhat a sad reason to get married.
ReplyDeleteI like your play on words.
Will try scribbling something like this.
Thanks very much for the compliment, dear. There's actually a particular name for this type of poetry. It skips my mind now, but I will remember soon.

ReplyDeleteCongrats to you?????
ReplyDeleteLol, no. I guess you didn't understand the poem because you are not a Nigerian, looolll.
Delete...the break aunties will ever give is short lived. The next thing they will be asking when the babies are coming...
ReplyDeleteLol. The never will. But I think the matured singles get the brunt of it.

ReplyDeleteLol, of course. Where else do they pressure this way?
