A Tacit Reply
Is she mute?
Or is she being a spook?
When she didn’t choose to speak,
They considered her weak..
People had a nice laugh,
When she was called a chaff,
But she continued to keep mum,
To her, none of them was a chum.
Then came the time,
When her gains became sublime,
She now has everything ,
The browbeaters can only dream
It was her turn to titter,
At people who were bitter,
But once again she kept quiet,
Letting them seethe in envy.
