The Eternal Matrimony – Delhi Poetry Slam

The Eternal Matrimony

By Tuhina Ganesh

The holy fire
Of this matrimony

Never goes out-
Ever fresh and warm,
Ever sacred and true.

Unseen to the eyes thick,
Visible by the aatmic eye.

The sacred vermillion
Of this tie-

Not just reddens the crown,
It crimsons every moment
Of life.

With no knots visible-

Free-flowing
As the waves of the sea,
As the rays of the sun,

But belongs every moment
To that Only One.
