Wood And Cotton Poem by Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar

Wood And Cotton



For wood to burn, heat in it must rise
To a temperature; so is for cotton.
Burning point differs; so does strngth of fire.
Woman is wood and man is cotton.
For woman to love man, man must ignite.
For man to love woman, it is dead easy.
Which man does not fall on woman's sign?
Which is harder to ignite: wood or cotton?
Who is vulnerable: woman or man?
Man, not woman needs protection.

Man and woman no difference. Two side of a coin. I know.
