《grass whistle ~ poetry》Shades of April

Advertisement

( A ghazal-ish piece)

Sheep in the sky look sheepishly at the green frock of April

And may , in vain hopes of emulation, peeks up the skirt of April

Flowers, flashing nude, host tinder for kaleidoscopic wings,

And the hosts, in secrecy, fool the cherished minions of April

Water hyacinths scout- with their green leak-proof periscopes- and conspire

For terror of Bengal two*, sacrificing a sea, for Goddess April

Destined lovers, stigma caves, pollen cry open sim sim in chem tongue*

And breast-fed well are the surrogated children of April

Cherry suckers* wait with daggers, knitting knitting until the king falls

And a torrent of green takes o'er the Bastille, fort of Queen April

She is a phoenix with short cycle, wither she will again,

As may overcooks the speciality of the apron-ed April.

*Water hyacinths are also called terror of Bengal as they clog the water and use up the oxygen of water bodies which results in the death of much of the aquatic life

Pollen and the stigma communicate in a chemical signals to check compatibility

Sucker are a type of vegetative propagules
