“The neighbor’s wife is always beautiful”.

An oft quoted adage sounds wonderful

Others views about his wife unmindful;

People are conscious about their glamour

Even though they may be beautiful or fair

But the women are very keen to exhibit their

Appearance before audience all around

Be at home or outside in public ground.

***

To add to the beauty with latest fashions,

‘Beauty parlors’ have sprung up like mushrooms

In metropolitan and urban locations

Dressing hair style, softening faces with creams

Clipping and painting colors to girls’ nails

And even attracting the elderly and aged women;

Some men prefer hair implants to conceal baldness

And pose like young and attractive persons.

***

Unlike the ancient mothers some modern mothers,

Influenced by the body beautification fashions

Are shunning away to giving breast feeds

Simply to protect the beauty of their boobs;

Providing bottle feeds to their babes

A sinister act impeding growth of the babies

Medicos say baby’s health care is primary

And mother’s breast protrusion is secondary.

***

But for participation in Fashion shows and Movies

Artists are conscious of sizing shrinking breasts

By resorting to surgical operations with tissue implants

Appropriate to their choice and size of chests

Keeping up in tact the breast ducts

For the healthy growth of babies cute;

The scientists and medical practitioners

Seem to be heaven-down bio-engineers.
