Shower Curtain Poem by nimal dunuhinga

Shower Curtain



My beloved threw away
the old fungi one and bought
a new plastic curtain that I love so much.
Birds, butterflies, bees and hornets
Moths, grasshoppers, plants and flowers
Stainless steel cages everywhere they printed.
Thank you so much darling
you realized my likings!
Now I am very cautious
whenever I take my hot bath
As I am scared they all fly away
leaving me in those cages
and I whistle sometimes Lennon's song
to keep them alive.
'And when the broken hearted people living in the world agree
There will be an answer, let it be
For though they may be parted, there is still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer, let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be! '
And my beloved grumbles; 'To whom you whistle so lovely'
'To you and my loved ones here dear'
She smiled sarcastically?
