The Wise Son Comments

Hi Chandra Thiagrajan, wonderful poem again and was a delight to read took me to my childhood days. Just for the sake of sharing, basis Veeraiahs and Valeries comments, i have a slightly different view. literally i am reminded of all the temples and mosques jutting onto our roads and clogging the traffic, trust me, i would put the dumb son on the throne, being a dumb king my self. lol, i am not the wise. thanks again for your superb write.

A superb story of wisdom.Allegorical.

Just love the story, authentic and meaningful...so nice and great! _Soul

a very short and sweet story with a beautiful message...a v gud write

as Valerie has written here, is it the psychological mind set? The first son tried to disintegrate what was given to him, with out any benefit, the second son is someone really who has no wisdom and knowledge, if the kingdom was given to him, he might not try to flourish instead he would try to conserve as we Indians possess the household things for many generations, but the third son carved something useful, might be a welcome sign or something like that! Nice to read!

the lines display your poetical skills

An example of psychological sublimation methinks. Good one Chandra.

Experiences of and as a mother have made you pen down this tale that tells things afresh. It is poem that can show the right path to the unwise sons if any..

This story I have heard, but a different version! Every subject is pliable in your hands and you dole out valuable tips for life in such admirable deliberation!
