In the sun he burns
Rs.50 he earns
for the day's food
for which he would
have to feed four
like the day before
He has enough for his might
fill them up half tonight
A dog from the street
comes wagging at his feet
he lets him have a bite
"A good deed tonight"
hungry stomach inspite .........
----------------XXXXXX-------------
I earn 25K
sit in AC all day
but if a dog comes my way
i shoo it away ........
PS : have you observed that the poor though they get so little donot let pass the opportunity to do simple good things. I have observed this many times that the labourers donot hesitate to feed the hungry dogs.
Its so funny when i observe in general the more we get the lesser we seem to be ready to give - Shouldnt it be the other way round ?????
You seem to have this whole romantic notion of 'poor are good, well-to-do are bad' I guess these are your personal observations and experience with both kinds.
ReplyDeleteThough I agree when you say 'the more we get the lesser we seem to be ready to give - Shouldnt it be the other way round ?????', I think it's ultimately the attitude towards things of the concerned individual, whether he be earning 25k or whatever.
If a person is sitting in the AC whole day and travels in cars, a hungry dog is less likely to approach him :P
