I don't mind if my best friend joins
me and my wife to see a comedy film;
he won't be 'Kabab Mein Haddi.' - A third wheel.
But if he insists on accompanying us
on a romantic meal, I will not tolerate it.
A bicycle has two and a car has four wheels,
a tricycle is good for pleasure ride, not often.
I read poetry and comment on them;
it is between me and the writer,
but a third person poking his nose in is a third wheel.
I am a true devotee of Almighty and pray to Him alone
If a Pandit (priest) interferes, he is a third wheel.
I love settle my issues with my wife,
If third person tries his hand, he is a third wheel.
I despise the following things in my life:
loud music, pompous shows, melodrama,
repeated ads, religious preaching, wagering,
false promises, flattery, and pity.
They are third wheel to me.
Determine your third wheel and get rid of it
before you fall flat and injure yourself.
I consider it like a wisdom tooth, neither essential nor useful, just painful.
Wisely penned..... interesting indeed.....thanks for sharing.....
Thanks Suzon, don't see your comments as before. Seems you don't logon often.
oud music, pompous shows, melodrama, repeated ads, religious preaching, wagering, false promises, flattery, and pity....Then you are a very good human being.
