A Mother Lives For Her Only Child

A mother lives for her only child,
Even The Decidedly Tiger-Wild
Her son’s unspeakable action mild,
Though a whole town has been beguiled. 

A mother exalts her only child:
Never ‘The Ragamuffin’ styled, 
Believing no  of case filed;
The Crime Crackers numbers dialed:
Her son who‘d’ portrayed no candle
Nor his headache could handle,
Her daughter liable to wrangle
Because of an unreachable bangle.

A mother could tears check for her son,
Whose savagery had shone;
For her intractable male child 
Whose rape cases have high piled!
