(Inspired by marvin goldfarb's gr8 contest in which I won a trophy cup and wonderful poems by other poets as noted below, 'LESSON IN LIFE' by BrittBrattTechy, 'Every child deserves better' by Poetryintheblood, and..'TODAY'S SOCIETY' By Gary. W. Hill.)
My poem below then read the poems I copy pasted in my author notes.

Instead of in and out the dusty bluebells my title:
In and out the lusty no weddin bells'
If you are ruthlessly one of those
who changes lovers like you do your clothes
and if you do beget each time
think of the hapless kids you leave behind
rather than the silly selfish fun you have each time
for you deprive them of either yourself
or your ex- other half.
Gosh, it took two to make a child
so it takes two to make it glow and grow
For nurturing them, both of you as couple need show
A single mother is modernity's most pitiable unfortunate sight
Modernisation to be blamed for this miserable plight.
How many times will you jilt and ditch partners
just for moments of nihilistic pleasure and excitement?
But why let your innocent tiny tots suffer
as if children were mere byproducts!
And byproducts of what?
I say, of flitting, fleeting lusts and desirous passions,
when senses can't think of consequence or contraceptions
for damn it you can't know where and when you will be carried away...
Then the resulting lil angels
to be cast aside as some leftovers
from past whirlwind romances.!
All that merry-go-round of flirtation
Marriage replaced by cohabitation
Falling in and out of the cycle-like-love
again and again for a newfound turtledove!
No probability of any stability
esp with the scenario of promiscuity
while kids suffer from disability.
Didn't the Creator expect all couples
to stay together till 'death do 'em' apart
So how dare any of His creations
stick together merely till 'they get tired and bored? ? ? ?
As if the heart were an everchanging love mart!
(pls do read the copy pasted poems by others below to get a gist of what im reiterating above)

's', I read your poem and a few lines of first poem in poet's notes. I give 4 stars to your poem, for your thoughts and some rhyming. CONTRACEPTION is wonderful if available and used.
It is right, i guess the one who change partners like that has trust, insecurity issue. Probably not now but eventually will feel how life without being someone who love and care them. Desire will go but heart cant be left empty.
Poetess Kamoonpury, this is an excellent poem about promiscuity. Some incredibly beautiful lines. You've so brilliantly captured the essence of unfaithfulness. I truly enjoyed reading this work of art. Thank you very much for bringing it to mine attention.

Cheaters are just deceivers looking for a quickie. People going through lovers like going through clothes, changing any time they want. Great work S!
