A career

A career!

There was lot of money in beer!
This idea brought a loud cheer.

But the lad found it very queer,
All he did then was just sneer!

He wished to be a pioneer,
His family appeared to leer;

They spoke words of jeer,
But he started feeling freer!

He wanted to volunteer,
His only aim was to steer,

And make his life veer,
As if he were quite a seer!

He wanted a fine career,
Wished to become an engineer,

Finally the boy’s family’s peer,
Gave in to his wishes sheer.

An Engineer was better than a buccaneer!
An Engineer was better than a marketeer!

An Engineer was better than a mutineer!
An Engineer was better than an auctioneer!
