She

She

A Poem by Jeyanthi
"

Just for fun. :P

"
She can talk with,
food stuffed mouth.
She offers you window seat,
even at first meet.
Always bugged by brother,
she follows same to sister,
getting slapped later.
When you get along,
compels to listen her favorite song.
She sleeps at night,
also morning same amount.
She goes to and fro between,
dramatic queen,
and Mr.Bean.

I liked at the end, how she goes from "dramatic queen" to "Mr. Bean". A queen is associated with glamour, style and getting all the etiquette right; and you have contrasted that with the clumsy bungling of Mr. Bean. Curiously, she seems to sleep the "same amount" in the morning; as at night! That sounds rather lazy, to me..! You don't need a capital letter Q for queen in this context, because you're not referring to the actual queen of any country. Also, it's because you're using the word queen as an adjective rather than a noun; and describing queen-like behaviour. That's why the context matters, here. Overall, a tongue-in-cheek and light-hearted piece of writing. It doesn't rhyme much, but poetry doesn't always have to; and not everyone always wants to divide into seperate verses. Particularly, with a brief write like this. In the car, I was reminded of arguing over which song should be played on the cassette player; with my sister (being reminded of such journeys by this piece).! Feel free to send me read requests too.

I love the contrast in this poem showing that we all have different sides and although at first read it sounds like a child it could be any age.

Yeah... from being usual to silly 😅
I smiled start to finish at your wonderfully written poem.. your little girl reads to be absolutely delightful.. and a wonderful woman in the making.. perhaps with a strong thread of her mom involved! Just read a second time.. she knows her mind yet seems not to be defiant.. there's a touch of magic in that little darling!

This was great, the line "When you get along, compels to listen her favorite song." is me, I always share my favorite music with people when ever I can. I really liked this, thank you.

Hi Jeyanthi. Nice to see you posting!!!! Two suggestions for this lovely poem. She listens to her favourite song and she goes to and fro between. I love this, it has a great family oriented ring to it!!!! Love that she swings between the two!!! What a fantastic image!!! just loved the read, alf
