No Rejection Poem by Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar

‘I love cow.’ said I to her
for its feminineness.
‘I too, for its piousness.’ said she.

‘I love doe’s eyes.’ said I further,
intending her own eyes.
‘Yes, for its innocence.’ was her reply.

I averred, ‘I love jasmine.’
Meaning its sexy odour.
She replied, ‘I offer it to the God.’

Desperate in my attempts,
I said, ‘I love women.’
‘Yes, for her motherhood.’

I was greatly confused
If she pretends or prevent,
If she evades or avoids.

Is she shy or caught by qualm?
She is not an idiot
To grasp the intension.

No rejection; assuaged.

If she pretends or prevent,
If she evades or avoids.

Is she shy or caught by qualm?
She is not an idiot
To fail to grasp the intension.

No rejection; hence assuaged.
