POEM OF THE WEEK

Marriage is a package deal,

With candy and quinine in one meal.

If the sweet you must take,

The bitter too, for the sweet's sake.

None from the other can be divorced,

Endorse one, you have both endorsed.

Your hope’s on a pretty face,

Adorable even with a grimace,

A face blessed with ready smiles,

Radiant from twenty sea miles.

Good in manners and disposition,

Arousing envy and opposition.

With a body soft and tender,

The brightest star of her gender.

Marriage is a package deal,

You kill the calf to get the veal.

Your desires are by Heaven halved,

The part’s granted, the other shelved.

Blessed with a face smooth and fine,

But her manners none can refine.

As she comes behind her face,

It remains her beguiling mace.

If you go for the colour of the veil,

Brief on the sea may be your sail.

Itchy fingers bear fine nails,

Like shiny shells and dead snails.

Every virtue on the outside,

Is countered with a vice inside,

But a perfunctory glance,

Reveals not that balance.

Her hair may be a pacesetter,

But it may shield a weak matter.

The vacant seat in the common,

Could well make you a Solomon.

The kitchen, though spotless,

The food may be tasteless.

A dead horse must rot,

The owner pretty or not.

Marriage is a package deal,

Fair and foul under one seal.

Elder Emeka Obiandu
