Ironic

IRONIC

Life is funny and comic
It is so true but ironic
Freed me to let you see
Enough if you disagree. 

If only life is one way journey
Some of us may agree always,

but:

I spend my life teaching first class citizen
Regarding them my children and true friends
Or even sadly forget my own kid and buddy
Never miss a single detail implying quality
In guiding and inspiring their future life, yet
Casting my own very kids away from the best site:

Since I have tiny penny to send them into one
Of the best places where all parents want.

If you still disagree with me, friend
Release me to patiently explain
Of a house builder turning his life messy
Not to have shelter for his own family
In his lengthy years of building mansion huts 
Coloring thousands of nice flats.
