An Old Comb

The old combs Stay with me many years Now I bought new combs too But too lazy to use I stay at home Especially during MCO I seldom use mirror or comb I use my hands to comb most of the time To tidy the short hair I cut myself I'm too old to use comb often I'm too lazy to bother appearance Which was spoiled by dimmy eyes and ugly wrinkles Suddenly I think of my parents Everyday they couldn't do without combs They brushed their hair tidy and shining Father with a quick sweep Mother with a long hour combing straight down Olden days people like tidiness and cleanliness Their days are simple And follow routines and etiquette Their hearts loyal and simple Like the being straightened hair Now people like fashions ,excitements and hairstyles The combs bring me back The sweet memories of my parents and their love The old combs deserve to be kept In my heart Especially during this Mother's and Father's Day
