Don'T Chase Them Out... Poem by Veeraiyah Subbulakshmi

Don’t chase them out, Girls,
They look very haunted and pale,
Sitting in the road sides coffee shops,
They talk about you, as if their queens,

Folded are their hands, teary are their eyes,
Not even know how to keep a false smile,
Holding a single beer bottle,
They are in your world, staying apart,

You may need to watch a sitcom,
As you may like laugh to shoe off the boredom,
What is wrong for them to stay at a happy home,
though they may not have what you have expected,

Slapping them for their inefficiencies collecting dollars,
And memories, Girls, please don’t chase them out,
Showing your fierce catty eyes to those little mice,
Let them stay at home with you and the children,

They need not come back home after you all slept,
Be a mother to your sweethearts who are deprived,
Longing for mother’s love and for this unique love,
They will bring for you the whole world.

A mother wants her child to stay with her every minute,
A husband is the child of another mother who needs love.
