Poems ✍️

A king nicknamed Mr. Miser,
Always tried to be too wiser.
His subjects opposed him never,
But they also tried to be clever.
The king had a daughter,
Famous for her open laughter.
On the wedding day of her,
He issued a royal order.
“That every citizen shall pour
A pot of cow’s milk pure
Into the big drum that’s kept
At the palace front-gate.”
Each one just thought,
His neighbor had brought
Pure cow’s milk in his pot,
That made up the whole lot.
It became a secret matter,
That everyone poured water.
No milk was in the drum,
But water-full upto its brim.
Often, we think, we’re wiser,
More than our neighbor,
And if everyone thinks like this,
Something we’re sure to miss.
