'I'm watching you'
it is about justice that safe-guards all.

‘I 'm watching you’

After their father died of a stroke
His two sons with soul-selling greed
Coveted his money in the banks
His fortune invested in bonds.

They denied their sisters their share
Of wealth, hard-earned by means fair.
They tried to manipulate their mother
Down in spirits and health like any other

Woman who lost her partner of life, 
Decades long sojourner in every strife.
Little did she imagine the clash and conflict
Over the legacy of wealth her husband had left.

The sons succeeded in convincing the mother
By pleading for money to clear the high debts.
They tried their best by every means, to tamper
With the father’s will that had set the allotments.

But different are the ways of fate that operates
With  men of cunning means and desperate ends.
Girls and boys are equal partners as per today’s rule of law
‘I 'm watching you’ says Justice, the Goddess without a flaw.

Justice may be delayed but never denied
The one watcher that checks those who lied.
