When I am at ease, I spread ease (poem)

I was dancing to "Tere Jaise Yaar kahan...",
while my son was eating his dinner slowly.

Then, I took a cup of water up for my daughter,
but, as I placed it on the slab, the water jumped out.

A drop of water fell on her folder of theater lyrics,
and my 12 year old daughter was furious with anger.

I was about to begin justifying, or to point her mistakes,
instead, for a change, I simply said, "I am sorry" & she left.

I witnessed, that just because, today, I didn't resist dancing,
I didn't resist her fit of tantrum, and the event died immediately.
