Grandma and Helper
Grandma and helper
===============
Hi grandma ! How are you?
How goes life with your helper?
Asked the grandson.
What!!! My helper, No dear
She is a sucker in the name of a helper.
Why grandma why? I did not know,
That you were not happy.
Why not get another one,
If she is not up to your expectations.
No dear enough is enough,
All the helpers are the same.
You do not need press release,
If you have a helper at home.
She will be a wonderful reporter,
We think we pay for her domestic work,
But she does unpaid service,
By her publicity of the inmates of the house!!!
Her bad mouth, tale carrying quality,
Oh no, too much to bear at my age,
Oh dear I would rather live alone,
Than to have a sucker, tale carrier, liar
In the name of a helper,
Just forget about her!!
Okay grandma,I would not say all are bad,
You get decent ones also, any way,
Forget about a helper and help yourself.
God helps those who help themselves,
Yes I know helpers try to help themselves,
Wherever they work!!!
