The genes they say
get reflected in the looks
a semblance being found
between mother and daughter.
Finding themselves in appearance
thoughts do catch them
being predominantly seen
as revealed in interactions and speech.
Apparently genes flow across the qualities
might be not shown openly
surfacing explicitly in the behaviour
the resemblance being pronounced.
Watching carefully the attitude of two girls
with whom I am closely associated
drew a parallel between then and their grandmother
they not live close but far away from each other.
They being together for a month in two years
do talk over the modern gadgets
but the two girls subconsciously inherited a quality
that of loving their home much .
The grandmother being tied to her home
enamoured by its charm get things done over a phone
the girls do not relish to venture out
wanting to relax in the comfort of their homes.
This made me deliberate for a while
wherein and how do these children learnt being so
concluded I that it is not
learning but inheritance
a legacy being passed on to them from their senior
