7-7=0 (Children's Poem)

Rating: 3.8


A home with 7 in a family
A busy family
They are all around inside their house

The father is busy reading and browsing on the desktop computer
The mother is busy talking and chatting with her friends

The first brother is busy listening to music with earphones
The second brother is busy courting by his cell phones and Tablet

The first sister is busy on his laptop on Facebook and Twitter
The second sister is busy on assignment, reports and school research

A house of rare communication with each other
The 6 members are too busy
Where is the other one, the youngest of them all?

She is in the other room because no one mind her
She is on the room feeling with sadness
They don't have concern with her

One day, the youngest got sick
She has a headache with high fever

Now, she has a full attention to them
They realize that they always have a family bonding to have a good family relationship.

Great poem Herbert! Telling tale of today's family and how they are ignored even in a large family. Not like back in the day, I am oldest of 8, it was so different then, both parents were always there for us all, doing things with us every day, teaching us, loving and caring for us. It's so sad seeing our children today starving for love and affection. Great write, sad state of affairs going on today. Thank you for sharing, RoseAnn

A modern family life got struck in their own worlds having no time for others in the family. We can seek the attention only under such conditions! Genuine story! Thought provoking read dear mam!
