Life and Dictionary

a poem by Shah Pravinchandra Kasturchand

You said: death follows life;
And success follows work;
A marriage before a divorce;
And a relative before friend.

I held to those views before;
But when I saw in Dictionary;
The set patterns all have torn;
Known views all in topsy-turvy.

There death first,life afterward;
Success first and work is after;
Divorce first, marriage behind;
Friend first and relative is later.

Is that why we hate dictionary?
Misspell words,show our anger?

(This poem of mine is based on a modified idea
of the original unknown writer. My thanks to him/her.)
