A pampered child

She in her feline eagerness
wanted to achieve all she desired,
all she wished , aspired, to possess,

not knowing the limitless boundaries
of limitations, ate marmalade,
pointed towards apple, offered forthwith,

Craved costly cotton dress,
her parents did not say ‘ no,’
pointed silk saris , the emporium,

her mother billed , bundled and parcelled,
gem stones, latest models, ornaments,
readily came to her doors,

she wanted that married man,
blue and globetrotting,
father to be her husband.

Day and night for her the same,
stealth and lie was her game,
her siblings gave a 'go'


out she came with a
thud of fall, fail, pale was her
face , with God’s wrath and fury interface.
