The shoes once used and found comfortable
Are not so when they are used after
A gap of time as in the mean time
The feet are used to the new pair.

Sans structure, feature and skin,
Can still make a woman alluring.
If not pretty, don’t worry.

There are exceptions to rules.
When exceptions exceeds in use,
Rules relegate to exceptions
And exceptions stay as rules.

The clown and con-man
Hide under the colourful coats;
The fool and charlatan
Ride with the powerful quotes;

Man cheats on woman;
Her beauty is no bar.
Woman cheats on man;
His chivalry is no bar.

Than the teachers of my school days.

As to my village gods then.

Pride took me through the growth of my child
And hid me from the growth I underwent.
My son with his age betrays my own age
And made me uncle to all young women.

Is like a shepherd, who has got interest
In the growth and safety of the sheep.
Your interest in others is likewise.

I shall weep, approaching death,
That my parents aren’t there
To nurse me and sooth me.
None else could assure me.
