ON MARRIAGE

Time comes when one needs a friend

to share everything for all time

as parents never remain forever

and companions share only for a moment.

But today politics rules over marriage.

Friendship is established for

the bride’s security and bridegroom’s next generation,

making this nice relationship a nasty business.
