Trouble And Tether
When the child outgrows the protecting shield of parents...
Long, long ago the child outgrew the pram.
It jumped out of crib and threw away the bib.
Now what it holds is a pen with the nib.
From mom’s index finger slipped the tiny tenders.
Shoe laces and bows and ties are tamed by their little masters!
Childhood and innocence grows in to youth and adolescence.
This metamorphosis and much more happen in the parents’ presence.
Both child and mother don’t realize they have come a long way.
It dawns to them on that eventful day!
Entrance to university is too noisy and fussy.
Naive kitten have to go in without mother pussy!
The child has to face the world, now on..
Parents’ shoulders are done with and gone.
Their guidance is always there whenever in need.
But the spoon feeding hands are clipped indeed..
Poor child is unable to digest this fact.
Nor is the mother’s emotions and anxiety kept in tact.
To survive in this world ‘be bold and independent’ is the winning clause.
Besides that, emotional dependence is failure’s killing claws.
Crushed will be child’s self confidence and will power.
Lead will be a worthless life oblivious to its untapped and hidden caliber.
From mid teens reborn is the child with new fervor.
This birth is not dependent on its parents on any maneuver.
It sets a goal for moving ahead during the rest of life span.
Any path it takes will have challenges and difficulties off and on.
This rebirth too has starting trouble and teething’s tether.
It is not an issue to excessively bother.
It isn’t a problem and so it calls for no solution!
This child-n-youth-n-adult will settle in the right direction!!!!
