Guess who loved me so much
Would you like to play a guess game?
What kind of the person would be like
Based on the following verbal comments
Made by people from all walks of life?
"A lousy parent, who had never driven a car."
"A bad road user, who paid no car's rego nor petrol"
"A stingy person, who never pay for one music lesson"
"A handy person who never hire a tradesman"
"A dodgy citizen, who paid no taxes but rates and levies."
"A rich and lucky person with no income nor expenses"
"A stubborn person who never changed their mind nor words"
"A rigid person who never broke their promises".
"Stingy with words, because they never used negative and abusive languages".
"A hoarder, who collected and kept everything, except living creatures."
"a loaded person, who have had everything and nothing was already plenty enough for them".
How old was the person?
Few wrinkles compared to fleckles,
Wore no spectacles, when working with needles.
Talked and walked slow, like a disable person.
Had natural teeth, needed no denture but only eating soft texture.
Drank nothing but only water.
Hardly moved their body but constantly fiddling their fingers.
Spoke lousy English but understood eight different languages.
Was targetted by many people while reaching so many targets.
Yes, that was me. I heard all of these for years.
Those words were still echoing in my deaf ears.
