Depriving all of us of times more sublime.

With quantity taking over quality of work

And work time taking over family time,

Inefficiency has taken over efficiency,

And work accountabilities have taken over parental responsibilities.

We should strive to achieve for the greater good in this worldly world,

Where both families and soceities will stand to benefit for sure.

Gamers are jeopardising the relationship totem.

Boardgames improve intellect, strategy and social life,

While computer games make one think of lost time and affected family life.

The times spent on boardgames are often cherished and savoured,

But the times spend on computer games are often perished and severed.

How can a friend’s personal presence and laughter

Ever be replaced by mere online chatter?  

Lost is the valuable banter between good friends of boardgames

How regretable, how regretable!

Best taken with a bittersweet pill.

Who says that romance is eternal

When its duration is seasonal?

Romance is only well-lived by the devoted

Pouring eternal lifeblood, sweat and toil into their dedication.

Harsh is the experience of loving,

But merciful is the experience of being loved.

How ironic then that while romance is often sought and lost,

True love is often let go and found?
