Very rich and busy parents asked their son,
"You have every luxury here,,
Best food,
People at your beck and call,
Why do you prefer your middle class friend's home more than ours.
Ours is a cold empty house,
Theirs is a small warm home,
Full of loving people with time for each other,
Here I feel I am with strangers ,
With my own who I rarely see or talk,
There I am with a family
Where hugs , kisses and laughter comes naturally,
Though not rich,
Little by little they have built their home,
With a mother's love and a father's care,
There I feel I belong.

On ma's hair,
Dad's going to come home early,
And in good mood
We will get money to see a movie.

Is my wake-up call,
Of what I should do and not do,
At present,
And in rhe future.

Meal,
Is when mum feeds you lovingly,
With her own hands.

What did the kidney say to the bladder,
Ur-ine my thoughts,
Sending you the flow soon.
The bladder grunted,
You kid-ney me,
I'm already half full.

What is in my heart let me tell you today
I don't  need gold or silver ,
Neither do I need castles or cars,
Nor diamonds or pearls,
What is all that of use to me now,
With one leg in the grave,
All I need is lots of hugs and kisses,
And a simple WhatsApp everyday,
"I love you granny".

Advised me,
Keep your ears long,
Your tongue short
Eyes open ,
Now my friends call me a wise owl.
