And then the fight started

 On d' cozy couch, restfully

I was just about to recline

she casually sat next to me,

d' time was quarter to nine

I was flipping d' channels,

Primetime news is a must

what is on TV? she asked

I said it ought to be dust

I replied right and precise

why did she feel insulted?

retorted in a witty manner,

and then the fight started

 I got home late last night,

after some deals pensive

she demanded to take her

to someplace expensive

I recalled Tel Aviv in Israel,

topped as per cost of living

France, Paris, New York,

it's all needless to dream

Took her to a petrol pump,

a cache of items imported

each morning prices go up

and then the fight started 

For an anniversary outing

I can award her an option

her heart melted at once,

with a sweet appreciation

Can have food of choice,

needn't be too expensive

it should suit our savings,

a balance of thrill & peace

 Not been in a long time,

such spot she advocated

I took to my parent's place,

and then the fight started 

She hinted to buy an article,

on her ensuing 23rd B'day

an item to go with her dress

matching, shiny ought to try

Bought her a weight balance

Mini,  golden, electroplated

Its arm glittered charmingly

To d' maxi dress well suited

 Swung slowly up and down,

obviously got so delighted

shiny, yellow yet not gold,

and then the fight started

She informally moved, stood,

looked into d' bedroom mirror

announced she felt horrible,

unhappy what she saw there

Not able to recall the image,

someone utterly unknown

scared to peep into d' mirror

startled, fetched the reason

I look aged, bulky, and ugly,

your eyesight perfect, I said

compliment not up to taste,

disliked, then d' fight started
