A Don Quixote and a Sancho Panza-W

Tough time – the economic crisis for a short period Sometimes for the five members there’ll be few bread. Mother would declare she'd already her share of bread “I was soo……. hungry, I had mine” she would add. Dad, sacrificing his life for my higher education Worked in a rustic village and living in seclusion. Scene changed with newly built house quite pleasing With my name plate "Dr. Ram Mehta, Litt.D" hanging. Scene changed with those sacrifices in matured years Acting Moliere in France, in U.K. visit to bards’ houses. Attending the poetry conferences in three continents Retired life with kids in USA and India, both democracies. *********** *Every autobiography is concerned with two characters, a Don Quixote, the Ego, and a Sancho Panza, the Self. W. H. Auden =================================================== First Place win in : Contest: The view changes sponsored by Michael F. Faletico =================================================== Fourth Place win in Contest: My Inspirational Poem by P.D. Fifth Place win in Contest: Winning poem by Skat-XOX
