Old is gold
Old is gold
It is not cheaply sold
It holds shine
And performs fine
The aged parent suffer
When their kids are far
Not even in position to see
Even if they are free
Some hard trick works
For calling them at home with kind words
They listen to sometimes
And ignore altogether in most of the time
Father may look jubilant
So mother side by present
Children are rare and priceless
They must see them with smiling face
I loved the honest play
Father might have found the way
It is appreciated
It is fully agreed and related
Father passed the message that they are taking divorce after 45 years of marriage. This tactic worked ,
