The Latest One Looks Better Poem by Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar

I read to my son a story
I heard read when I was a child.
I read it to my grandson
Each time my perception grew.

I visited the Taj Mahal
As a child, an adult and
An old one and each time
My perception got better view.

She was my teenage girlfriend.
I met her as a young mother
And later as a grand mother.
My perception underwent changes.

Partly my accumulated knowledge
And partly the impact on them
Of time and space are the causes.
The latest beat the formers..
