Gossips and the Social Media

Gossip! Gossip! Everywhere. 

Who ran away with whom? Why do I care?

Whose wife threw her mother-in-law out of her house? 

Who is playing the game of the cat and the mouse? 

Who has been arrested and is languishing in jail? 

Who has been pardoned and let out on bail? 

Gossips tend to spread like wildfire,

Anyone can gossip to his/her heart's desire.

Someone shares herbal remedy,

To cure any kind of malady.

Someone narrates a sorry tale,

While someone offers products for sale. 

Social media is here to stay,

Driving the monotony in life away.

YouTube teaches everything,

Painting, dancing, and cooking. 

Facebook connects us with our relatives and friends.

Gossiping on these can set dangerous trends. 

Some wise guys post messages crap,

To mislead us on Twitter and WhatsApp.

People post their glamorous photos on Instagram.

They also display pictures of their pets or babies in a pram. 

Gossips should never hurt anyone,

They are just meant for having fun. 

Gossip! Gossip! Everywhere.

Creates tension in the air.
