His temper fanned her; <br />It simply was not fair <br />Making embers fan to flame <br />Almost gave him a scare! <br /> <br />He never did lose his temper; <br />Stone with pale band of colour <br />Agate and oval placed on his ring! <br />He calm focused even in his paler <br /> <br />Her words flew over his head <br />He lay still in his bed <br />His secret thoughts with poetic words filled <br />Her love he will defend <br /> <br />Pity; how money made them masters <br />How ego lay in thick waters <br />She stood alone, he left her lamenting <br />Untouched, transparent, fetters! ! <br />~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<br /><br />malini kadir<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-temper-rubaiyat/
