I'm a middle aged man with a menopause d mind,
striving hard to make the ends meet,
struggling to set myself straight,
against the raising concerns from
my boss for not thinking out of box,
dearest wife, that I no longer love her the way it was,
my junior that I don't spare him time for a online game,
One or other almost everyone around had a concern or a claim,

On a thoughtful evening browsing some motivational videos on net,
I discover my mantra "Sweetheart Relax" from a famous Art of living guru,

Determined to surprise all, I keep it  a secret,

In no time, I adopted it and started using it here and there, left and right,
Struck in traffic badly and there is no cop to clear it for a long ! "Sweetheart Relax",
The Driver behind you honks too loud, despite the fact that it is a long traffic jam! Sweet heart Relax!
On site team calls for a talk late in the evening for which you to skip your dinner date with wife,Sweetheart Relax!

The newly wed tenant couple fights it out all the night and it did not let you catch some sleep, Sweetheart Relax!

It started working good, even in dreams I started murmuring "Sweetheart Relax"

week went on, finally weekend has arrived!

In the middle of night on Sunday!

My wife wakes me up with kids in front,
takes my hand and placing on my little angles head says,

Swear by the Kid! that you would tell us the truth
how long is this going on?
who is this Sweetheart? why should she relax?

Guess what ?

I said "Sweetheart Relax"!
just trying to test myself, if I can write something in  a lighter vein!
