Settled Family Life! Poem by Ramesh T A

Settled family life, if one has, is fortunate in the world!
One can be assured one has a good life to lead doing
The work one likes undisturbed to achieve great feat!

But shackling off such a good setup, if one wants to go,
It will be only like the elephant that sprays on itself sand
After coming out of river bath along with its herd sure!

Some may think by training in the course of time, it is
Possible to turn an urchin into a family lady as depicted
In Pygmalion which is like straightening a dog's tail.....!

However hard one tries natural character can't be changed!
Even if one tries so, the street dog, which is washed and fed
Well, will again go out to the street and eat outside excretion!

Good character developed from childhood only can last long
Doing good thing in the world living a fine settled family life!
