Rings Of Smoke! Poem by Geetha Jayakumar

Rings Of Smoke!

Rating: 4.0


Often he played with
Circles of smoke
He loved making circles
With the puff of cigarette.
A chain smoker, he was,
He lit another one,
Before one got over.
All warned him to stay away
But it fell on his deaf ears.
Finally, he choked his heart
Now lay as good as dead
On the bed of smokes
He puffed everyone's words in
Rings of smoke.

a good one with an important message to chain smokers who puff smoke in the air for enjoyment, later find themselves on bed with a sense of predicament!

Geetha, when warned this way, definitely it will have greater impact than writing a treatise on the evils of smoking! A good job!
