MAUSI not AUNTIE

MAUSI not AUNTIE

Awesome,

the system,

and unique,

the social fabric

bound strong

since age long

Indian society

despite man6y a disparity

in cuisine and customs

 caste and costumes

is the address sweet

anyone they greet  

even man on street

when they meet

beyond own relation

as a childhood lesson

giving the man the authority

besides the responsibility

of goodwill to shower

from his core inner

making the other as his own

owning a kith and lin relation.  

Towers over addresses, all

captivating is MAUSI as a call

meaning the lady sister, younger

to the addresser's own mother

nurturing like her sister

to her sister’s child as a spinster

with relation as a mother

- life long demanding on her

accountability and affection

despite her change in position.

Auntie a call equivalent

does not match MAUSI of this subcontinent.
