DAUGHTER'S VISIT


Daughter visits after a long time

We are very happy to dine

It looks invigoratingly fine

To play with grandson.


We chat on varied issues

I get to learn new things

She appears very relaxed

With her son on his own errand.


Then she gets busy with her mother

To talk on home issues that matter

I keep away from all that

To sit with grandson and chat.


I give him puzzles to solve

He doesn't find it difficult to resolve

I try to give him universal knowledge

But he tells me things alien to judge.


Son in law joins them at home

I have man to man talk with him

They are very busy otherwise

Leading life as per their desire.


It's after they leave my house

That I strongly feel their absence

Door remains open with them not in sight

For another long weekend I have to wait.
