    Here stands a house beautiful,
    All liked it saying wonderful ,
    Every part was built with out haste
    planned for my son as his taste
    every portion was built skillfully,
    His room was decorated beautifully,
    Brusely pictures were hung on one side ,
    Tennis players were smiling on the other side,
    He liked that place ,for a month he stayed ,
    situation was happy .till the life played ,
    His super acheivement made us proud .
    As highly ambitious he went abroad ,
    Waited eagerly for his arraival back,
    Sitting on the bench alone in the park,
    Years passed ,age increased ,
    Tense increased stamina decreased ,
    Knowing you are happy with settled life ,
    losing interest to maintain the house big size ,
    Like "Arjun" my mind was disturbed badly ,
    but Geetha lectures lifted me up slowly ,
    "follolw the path of lotus leaf
    do ur duty with unconditioned love"
    Opened my eyes.,,,,good thoughts arose there.
    "House for sale board was being hung there ,
    Im sure many houses have the same tale ,
    given to builder or a board for sale .

    Vishalam ma'am,
    Nicely brought out the emotions of aged parents whose children live abroad ..these emotions were experienced by my parents too when they sold their house..

    Dear Vishalam,
    That was a very touching poem! How true is your poem. Quite a lot of parents are riding the same boat! But then THAT is LIFE! The earlier we realise that we are alone in this world the better for us. All relationships are like that of train friendship!
    A wonderful poem!
    Love,
    Malathi

    Vishala mam,
    very heart touching poem. Lot of parents facing same problem, especially who had a single child.
