BRINGING IN A SOFA

On the floor, off the mat We all sat, slept & ate Flooring of mud but broom laid Cream of cow dung applied. Life was simple though not smooth Bit of course with pins and needles All of it took years of strain &pain To have a floor of cement paste Life became a little fine With no fear for straw/ pine or rain. After long years of earnings and savings Came a glossy floor of mosaic Squares of many laid across Life began to show finesse and patio With dearness and dare to dream Aloof came a wind of betterment Which brought with it a Reflection of steps of success A smooth finish of marble floor Start of prosperity and a sign Of sapling growing into a plant. Attaining a growth visibly and not Easy adding in an element of luxury In the marble floor By Bringing in a sofa made of velvet Like a beautiful craving brought out a Rough stone Hard work ways Patience pays is what Life says.
