A Mothers Advice-W

A mother’s advice

One mother’s advice
To her daughter on her marriage,
“It is easy to keep a man,
Be a maid in the living room,
A cook in the kitchen
And a whore in the bedroom”.

Quick came the reply from the daughter,
She would hire the other two
And take care of the bedroom bit.

Another mother’s advice,
To her daughter on her marriage,
“Be a good maid in your work
Be mother like while in the kitchen,
Be a secretary to your husband in his work,
And a celestial nymph in the bedroom”.

The daughter added to it,
“She will be all-in-one”
