21st May 2003

Thus ends another chapter
In the story of my life
As she's been pledged to someone
To someday be his wife
And mother of his children
And granny dear to theirs
In view of the tradition
Of cultivating heirs
To inherit the business
Or keep alive the name
Throughout the generations
In the procreation game
That's played upon the chessboard of life:
She who's pledged to be somebody's wife.
