Let Them. Poem by Nabakishore Dash

Let Them.

Rating: 5.0


Enjoying the bliss of conjugal life
brings the children
to the world.
Then it becomes the earnest duty
of the parents to take care of them,
bestow their love and affection,
teach them etiquettes and
distinguish right from wrong,
co-operate them
till they grow some years old.

They are unique individuals
endowed with mines
of hidden talents and
potentials in them.
The duty of parents
is to support them to
unfold their talents,
make headway and stand on their own,
earn livelihood, name and fame.

Let them learn from
the mistakes of others and
their own.
Never impose your
wishes and dreams,
summon unwanted miseries
and unpleasantness
in return.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Let the children develop their talents, may exceed the parents. No imposition of our wills and dreams.
