Smoking Is Injurious




"Smoking is bad,
Out of fad", says
my lad of eight

Don't smoke again
It does slain you
Gives pain to us

I do not bluff
Said,"Enough!" Took
a puff to think

LOL! You know, previously we used to say by lighting a cigarette, " Let's fuel up the intelligentia", I have used that irony. xoxo, Bobby

Now that's irony! The parents teach the children ... until the children teach the parents. Well penned Than-Bauk and congrats on the win.

Yes, it happens every now and then. I have seen many telling children, "Don't lie!" and then mobile rang, answered, " Sorry, I am out of station". LOL! Thanks a lot, Tim, for your read and wonderful comment. Hugs, Bobby

SSSorry Ma'am, You are right and I am wrong. Just see I am on my knees and folding my hands I am apologising in front of you all... I am a sinner ... Please, please forgive me... please... at least for the credit of writing a Than-Bauk and that too on human folly. Believe me, I don't have son, I have a daughter of seven and I have written this for the sake of rhyme only. Love and hugs, Bobby
