Food for thought



Deceived, dejected they lie -
Under the flyover
The busy civilization
Runs over the roof
A mouthful of silence
With eyes full of despair;
A pair of hands
Seeking a piece of loaf-

Do you enjoy watching reflection -
Of the coin you just offered
In their eyes; pity on you
Is it all you can do for them?
Why the voice of sympathy
Why the glance of apathy
Can you offer a bit more
To secure country’s future

Take the oath to feed a child
It hardly cost you half day’s smoking
Extend thy generous hands
To provide some grains
To cover them under the rain
We all need to start from the root
To uproot the cause
Think a little, with a pause.
