Little girl she
became cupid’s arrow
flexing her heart with reddy fruit
craving for red juice, demanding red jelly with mum
Asking history of Pomegranate,
the loving gravity of nature’s bounty,
asking mum how can red color allures
with tons of hues
That little girl in her small brain,
rotting newton law of principles
geographies, histories, utmost axioms
never knew how pomegranate became red
She is out of shell with reasons, logic, reminiscences
still her leafy memories baked in when she gets
same pomegranate from nature
Still, she is in parallels of nature and reason
Still, she is in perpendicular to action and reaction
Still, she is searching rooty nurturer of pomegranate
Still, she is scarlet crystal shells of pomegranate
searching inner seeds of inside
cracking the allegory of dusk
