A mother is in dilemma, whether to sell her family home or not. She beautifully pens down her emotions in this heartfelt poem
Fallen, dead leaves
Covered the driveway
She stood watching
The marital home
Family waiting
To claim inheritance
Avarice raging
Pushing for mothers’ assent
Sell the house, sell the house
Shift with the children
How can you manage alone?
Her husband had built
The family home
Not to be sold for greed
But to be enjoyed in need
Should she give in?
Was it her motherly duty?
To agree and comply?
Holding her widow’s weed
Recalling her husband’s creed
She decided not to accede
No
Shocked daughter and son
Fumed and fretted
Cajoled and threatened
To abandon their mother
In firm silence
Selfish progeny at play
Beauty in decay of
Autumn leaves falling
Promising herself to
Find a new way.

A couple of months ago, I came across an article titled, “Shweta Tiwari married for the third time.” When I read through it, the article went on to clarify that the picture making news was one her one of her shows, in which she is all set to marry her co-star. She is not getting married in real life.
Fair enough. But why did the publication use such a clickbait title that was so misleading? I guess the thought of a woman marrying thrice made an exciting news for them and their potential readers who might click through.
