SOMBER COUNTENANCE

 

SOMBER COUNTENANCE

 

 Mysterious life challenge encounter,

Defeats obstacle successes endeavor,

Childhood troublesome find difficult,

Study well solve mathematics, effort, (1)

 

Memorize English history, geography,

Language challenges practice trophy,

Experiments with science theory all,

Inherent pleasure curiosity all recall, (2)

 

Burn lantern nightlong study lesson,

High school examination nit caution,

First division result remind pleasure,

Higher education success, hope sure, (3)

 

Perseverance patience exercise most,

Research accomplish degree, utmost,

Youth exemplary period rise desires,

Honor accomplishments lot inspires, (4)

 

Numberless-dreams hope, aspiration,

Rises life from dire poverty, devotion,

Borrow money on loan accrues most,

Anxious moments predate peace lost, (5)

 

Apply for jobs reply never receive toll,

Waits for day week months times roll,

Opportune moment arrive interviews,

Hours of scrutiny, answers lit reviews, (6)

 

Job for poor-student means survival,

Never estimate quality volumes total,

Work with files write, write and write,

Obey officers note, comply nit n fright, (7)

 

Nameless office clerk meager income,

Small-family with kid, wife, awesome,

Manages mediocre life smaller house,

Story of grocery vegetable cloth rouse, (viii)

 

Rouse, make no mistake, prices rise,

Small home crumples loans terrorize,

Kid, read succeed exam study higher,

Result-extraordinary competitive lure, (9)

 

Day of reckoning arrives award greet,

Great-post, associate honor lives treat,

Servant bungalow car driver life best,

Affluence creep nicely, ego lives crest, (10)

 

Retired life small pension live, modest,

Listen to praise people narrate, waste,

Applauds high profile child’s elegance,

Parent in silence somber countenance, (11)

 

Ask me not I hesitate, complexities lie,

Parent, once visited kid surprises, sigh,

Questions parent about kid teary look,

Fail to guess sorrow repeat hurt hook, (12)

 

Father replies, kid introduced friends,

Evade address parent say rustic ends,

Hurt humiliated parents return socks,

Silent-heart never exposes fear mocks, (13)

 

Deep wounds poor-parent little expose,

Astonishes returned melancholy owes,

Hypnotizes realm cast dreams advance,

Ink tragic story in somber countenance… (14)
