When Love's Not On Cue, Be Patient. Poem by M. Asim Nehal

Today In jungle when the atmosphere is wild,
there Live a lion and a lioness, untamed and styled.
They enjoy to rule the beasts with their mighty roar,
whereas, their romantic life was still very bore.

As the day progressed and the sun shone bright and strong,
the lion beheld his lioness, all day long.
He puffed up his mane, feeling bold and grand,
ready to woo his love with a romantic demand.

When he approached her with confidence, full of pride,
the lioness rolled her eyes, trying to hide,
She said, 'Not now, my dear king of the wild,
I have a headache, don't be so riled.'

The lion was taken aback, feeling quite down,
he wanted passion and romance, not a frown.
But determined, he tried a different approach,
maybe laughter would win and he would encroach.

He told her jokes and silly tales so amusing,
he even did tricks, like a lion quite confusing.
But the lioness sighed, 'Oh, my silly mate,
can't you see I'm tired? Let's just wait.'

Defeated but undeterred, the lion thought of a new plan,
he'd set the mood, like a true romantic man.
He killed a deer and placed before her with all flair,
but the lioness yawned, saying, 'I need fresh air.'


Taking a deep breath, the lion held back his moves,
Another thought appeared to him like the fiery grove.
He asked, 'Darling, when will we become one? '
She replied, 'Oh, my love, just after dinner is done.'

But dinner came and went, and still no embrace,
the lion felt frustrated, losing all his grace.
He pleaded, 'Enough of this waiting, my dear,
let's indulge in love, and banish this fear.'

The lioness smiled, seeing his desperation so clear,
she said, 'I've been teasing, my love, never fear.
For you, my king, patience is the key,
now let's make our love roar with fiery glee! '

With a playful growl, they came together at last,
two fierce hearts beating, the moment so vast.
Their passion ignited, like a blazing fire,
and their love making noises louder than any choir.

In the jungle, their roars echoed with delight,
as the lion and the lioness embraced the night.
From that day forward, they became one,
their love and laughter under the golden sun.

Here is a little advice for all, when love's not on cue,
have a laugh, be patient, and let it renew.
For in the end, when the timing is just right,
love will roar and shine, bringing pure delight.
