Natural Poem by Khairul Ahsan

Natural

Rating: 3.9


A new born baby finds,
Even with closed eyes,
Mother's nipple, sucks,
Without prior knowledge,
And yes, it's so natural!

Children do not find,
Any attraction or urge,
In nakedness or sex,
It's just their innocence,
And yes, it's so natural!

Adolescents quietly find,
Ways to deal with the urge
Of sex and things sexual,
Indulge in ecstatic fantasy,
And yes, it's so natural!

Grown ups give in easily,
To the enticing attractions,
Proceed like winged insects,
To the flames of passion.
No! That's not so natural.

Spouses stealthily respond
To the fatal temptations,
Yielding acrimony, heartbreaks,
Wreaking havoc in the family.
No! That's not so natural.

They go to bed together,
Fantasize someone else,
More intimate virtually,
Than perhaps physically
No! That's not so natural.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Temptations of flirtation and infidelity loom large here and there. Only a strong character can help resist.

So true as children life is pure and natural. As we become adults we become tarnished and life is blemished. This is a true and well written poem.
