Walk along with me

Son, join and walk along with me
Even though it may not be interesting and free
Still I must bring it to your mind and reveal
What we have in home today is not real!

You are unaware of certain practical things
We have involved in many shoddy deals to get something
For our bright future and making it towards betterment
To enjoy it with you all and make happy moments

You are quite intelligent and may grasp it easily
Why I am dwelling at length and happily?
No one is sure of tomorrow and I am no exception
Nothing should be left behind with burning questions

I shall speak to you with practical angle
Life may be posed with so many triangles
You may have to deal it with sense of real man
As it may have to witness different approach as human

Nothing comes in hand without hard struggle
Life may be difficult and full of troubles
Yet I must advise you not to get disturbed and loose the hope
There is steep rise of the hill with dangerous slopes

I looked around to see son and to my dismay found him away
He had seen some children playing and found his way
He was free from all worries as I had just imaginedd
He was yet not a fully grown man and trained

I cut a sorry figure and looked toward sky
There was nothing more to think of and ask why
You can’t forecast forcible future today and plan
As there may be enough of water in pond for swan

We need not worry much about tomorrow
As I had taken enough of precaution now
It is possible nothing may turn out wrong
Yet the eventuality can’t be tackled for a song

It is nice to reveal to all the family members
They must, if not all, but certain things to remember
Hard work and strategy planned in advance does not fail
Only best efforts must be put and chance availed
