They suffer in silence, endure many hardships, pain and helplessness. Then there are those who complain at the slightest misfortune. Nothing makes them happy. They have more; still they are not satisfied. They want more. They form the Grumble Family. , Characteritics of the grumble family The Grumble Family is alone. Nobody wants to meet them. They live on the Complaining Street. They are never satisfied with what they have. They have a river of discontent beside them. They find fault with everything. They are more worried of what they don’t have instead of contentment with what they already have. Complaints galore . The members of the Grumble Family have something negative on everything. Even if they have everything they find something lacking. They find the weather either hot or cold. ‘They say summer is hot. In winter they say it is cold. They can’t accept that we can do nothing ‘on the cycle of the weather. For them nothing goes right. If it rains they say it rains unexpectedly. If it is warm ‘they complain they can't bear the extreme heat. If they find everything is right, they say they have nothing to worry. Beware of grumble family ‘There is something wrong with the Grumble Family. If anyone comes close to them, they are automatically drawn to their evil ways. They get used to their negative way of life. So the poet asks the readers not to accidentally walk into the Complaining Street. She also asks us not to grumble. Otherwise people will wrongly come to the conclusion that we are grumblers too. Walk with smile and song ‘The poet asks the readers to learn how to walk with a smile and singing all the way. ‘Things go wrong. We have no control over them. Our lives may be high or humble. We do not belong to the Family of Grumble. Conclusion We should never allow the pessimism of others to spoil our happiness. We come into contact with people from all walks of life.

They are brave, strong and resolute. They are ready to take up anything under the sun. They work tirelessly to prove that they are capable of trying new things. The poem ‘Iam Every Woman is a bold poetic expression of today’s women. Women are symbol of power and strength _ For women appearance matters. More than physical external appearance, today’s women consider inner beauty essential. They are the source of power and strength. They put their very lives in danger in giving birth to children, in taking responsibility for their immediate families. ‘They are women of substance, They are not fake. Women are always posit re The life of today’s women is full of difficulties. That does not dampen their spirit. They are hopeful of bright future. Summer does not last long. Summer is followed by spring. They carry on caring for their dear ones that something positive is near. Today's women have no fear. ‘ . Strong in faith; firm in belief Women have pain, They meet failure. They face disappointment. They express grief. They complain. They grumble at everything. Yet they continue the course of action in spite of difficulties. They are strong in faith. They are firm in belief. Pranksters beware” Today’s women may look soft and gentle. However they are strong as lioness-the queen of forest. Anyone playing mischief has to face the music. They allow no one to wound their pride and self-respect. They will confront their abusers and cut them to size. The poet warns the readers not to meddle with women. : Conclusion Women are the epitome of strength, love, sacrifice and courage. The role of Today's women has changed for better. They are now self-sufficient and financially independent. ‘They are now marching side by side with men in every walk of life. 140: Unit 3..
