When a tree dries
It becomes like a plea
Of a mannerless woman.
Roots feed and sustain
The entire tree and branches;
And its leaves, long or short.
Such a dry tree
Stands alive while dead;
Its roots are uprooted.
The entire tree becomes lifeless
Its branches have dried up
And its leaves fall down.
Such is a dry tree
So will children born
On a rootless woman
For it germinated carelessly;
It lacked good care and watering,
While it was sprouting.
Lack of good sap in roots
Dries the bark and the branches
Such is a damaged childhood
For basic etiquettes missed.

Attractive and interesting
Mannerless and disgusting
Extra judicial killer
Aren't you criminal?
You break law
Ha ha haw.
Note.Gangsters are often aggressive.
Lesson.Let it go mad man and free your mind.

The song of a Child- Ghosts, Go Away
Ghostie, Ghostie go away,
Only a minute until the day.
The sun will shine,
I shall dine,
And ghostie you will not be fine.
Ghostie, go off,
Ghostie, don't come back,
Ghostie, manners you do lack,
Waking me up so early.
Mother will scold you,
She'll say you impolite,
She's going to get a fright,
To see such a mannerless Ghost!
Ghostie, Ghostie, go away!
