The Strange Twins


It's said that twins are always akin,
  Neil & Nikki had a matching skin
 Even the blue color of eyes was akin
      He was strong, she frail n thin
 This is where dissimilarity begins
He ate like a hog, she survived on skins
 She persevered while he easily gave in
      They were the most  unusual twins

  1. Ahhh! Intriguing.
    Read "A River" by Ramanujan. It has a rather good reference to twins.

  2. I have heard that, in most of the cases twins act opposite.


    PS: perhaps i could not understand what you are trying to say, i am weak at deciphering poetry :(

  8. because literature does not only state what exists...it also liberates... it offers something you've never seen before, or felt before.

    i can describe lovers and friends, but why? that is the question. :)

    but i should say the description is good na.
