The fragrance of love

Man’s love for woman is instant;

Woman’s love for man is latent.

Man’s pursuit makes her love potent;

Woman’s image makes man’s love vibrant.

Woman takes time to build her love.

Till such time she delays courtships,

With pretense of ignorance and

Indifference and connivance.

She takes time to study the man

In love and verify his worth.

She needs time to sheds her shyness

And say love to the man of her choice.

Her response to love is blossom.

Knowing it gives the man a thrill,

Which is the peak of sexual pleasure

Got in the episode of love.

Since then the love may grow further,

Come to a standstill or abort.

Regardless of the result, stays

In lovers’ memory the feelings.

Blossom has fragrance; so does love.

Failure of fruit kills not fragrance.

Lovers reminisce at their past love

And beam at their worth for the other.
