I wish I was a youth.
No woman education;
No co-education.
Boys seeing girls were forbidden,
Not to say of their talking.
Now woman education is at par.
Co-education and co-employment.
Enormous proximity
And cell phone facility.
Then easy to catch now easy to slip
Then a few blossoms and a few withering;
Now a lot of blossom and equal withering
Yet, I wish I was a youth.
