CAT ON THE WALL

(On behalf of millennial)

We are a generation that has seen old and new

We have seen growth of computer right through 

We have experienced technology changes

We are in a dilemma what we should do in our lives.

We are like the cat on the wall

We are not sure which way to fall

We wonder what others will say

Anxious how parents will sway.

Do we work under a boss in an office

Or do we work as boss without a fuss

Do we drive own vehicle to office

Or do we take metro and get peace?

Do we stick to our normal food

Or switch to pizza pasta as ordered

Do we always eat at home 

Or go out atleast sometime?

Do we dress in our old ways

Or wear modern western clothes

Do we watch family dramas

Or see crime and horror movies?

Do we visit church or temple

Or pray at home in peace and lull

Should we believe in God Almighty

Or feel we make our own destiny?

Do we stay in independent home in outskirts

Or in a modern flat in an apartment complex

Do we opt for second third floor 

Or choose to stay much higher.

Do we buy a home of our choice 

Or stay in a rented place and rejoice 

Do we buy furniture accessories 

Or rent them as per requirements?

Should we decide to have child

And bear all the agony in mind

Or get a pet and live peacefully 

Treat it and rear it as good as a baby.

These questions come to our mind

But what we wish to do we find

We don't bother what society thinks

We live as per our own norms.
