Poor great grand papa
P K Routray
I have sugar in blood I have crystal in kidney,
My great grand papa was poor he had none where ever he is there he has to agree.
I have led in the stool, iron in arteries,
My great grandpapa was poor, hence perhaps from his burial place he envies.
I have acquaintances with AIDs and cancer undergoing treatment in very costly and posh hospital,
My great grand papa was a poor and he did not have friends to dream such things happening in actual.
I have gold spec and computerized hearing aid,
He was poor and did not have any of them as my father had said.
We have air conditioned luxury car and have to put in costly fuel,
My great grand papa was so poor he had only a cycle to physically paddle.
I have computer to memorize for me and maintain my diary,
My great grand papa was poor and perhaps illiterate hence he had to depend on faith and memory.
I live in sky kissing mansion with half cooked food and distillery water at my door step,
My great grand papa was poor, he had to toil in field and drink stream water to be in pep.
To save me from the sun wind and rain I have innovative indication and protection,
what would have happened to my great grand papa if tsunami would have struck then all on sudden?
He had no movies with so many thrills, pubs and casinos for recreation,
I learned that he was so poor only palm leaves books were his leisure time compulsion.
When I become invalid I have old age home,
he had none such home but perhaps was lucky and at ninety nine he literarily walked to his tomb.
I feel pity on him for his pitiable life he had to row,
I will make sure that no great grandchild of mine to be there to think for me so.
