 children of lesser mortals

























Its childhood
the happy age.
Its childhood a carefree page 
in the book of life 
which has volumes 
to say 
of ups and downs 
which will  stray your way 
unwanted and un asked for.

Is childhood
the happy age?
Is childhood the carefree page?
in the book of life
with agonies so rife
that  it discriminates
each one from other 
as they walk their way 
each hour and everyday..

A child is born 
and another too,
 the  time is same 
and the hour too.
but fate is not
the same for them
its blessings for one
and for the other 
mayhem.

One sleeps in the shadow 
of  the canopy of the rich
 The other in the shade
 Of palm trees  lives
For one the plate is
always  scrutanized
the other looks at the crumbs
with  hunger in the eyes.

They say the master
wills it all .
HE is the revered God of  all
OUR  FATHER who in heaven stays 
what makes him 
then to  differentiate
between his children very own ??
why does HE want sadness sown 
In the fields of them
who his world adorn .??




 




















waiting for the pics ----wish they appear soon ): ):---do please bear with me

The difference starts at birth but why is our welfare state so indifferent to the fate of the poor?

You can't go on blaming god for every little thing goes wrong with this world's order it is up to us that we make our efforts to put things right around us and then for something which is not within our reach we must call god for help now that does not mean we don't need god but what i am trying say here is with given power we must try and that is probably why we are here children suffering with illness is something out of our reach but for starving children i sure there something we can do about

A FEELING-FULL POEM ABOUT THE FATE OF UMPTEEN NUMBER OF CHILDREN ON THE STREETS LEFT ABEGGING , EVEN FOR A MORSEL OF FOOD !!!IN CONTRAST , ARE THE CHILDREN OF WELL TO DO , WHO WASTE FOOD AND INDULGE IN NEEDLESS EXTRAVAGANCE !!

A CRUEL PICTURE INDEED ...BUT IS THERE ANY LASTING REMEDY FOR THESE ILLS OF THIS MAN-MADE SOCIETY ??? IRRESPECTIVE OF THE EFFORTS OF PHILONTHROPISTS ,NGOs AND GOVERNMENT PARTICIPATION , ERADICATION OF POVERTY AND IGNORANCE IS A TALL ORDER !!!
LET US NOT BLAME GOD ...HE HAS PROVIDED EVERYTHING IN PLENTY ,BUT WE DIVIDE AND SHARE THE SPOILS , IN AN UNFAIR WAY BY DISCRIMINATING !!! POVERTY AND RICHES...BOTH ARE CREATED BY OUR SOCIETY !!

UNLESS THERE IS A PARADIGM SHIFT IN OUR OUTLOOK , TO TREAT ALL AS CHILDREN OF GOD , THIS SUFFERING WILL BE FOUND ON ALL CHILDREN'S DAYS ,EVEN IN FUTURE ALSO !!!

RAKHI , TIMELY AND AWAKENING !!!

Thank U Madhumita jee for raising
a burning issue of Differences between children of poor and rich classes through
the nice post on occasion of 'children day'

"One sleeps in the shadow
of the canopy of the rich
The other in the shade
Of palm trees lives
For one the plate is
always scrutinized
the other looks at the crumbs
with hunger in the eyes."

Our Political Leaders should realize
their corrupt conducts,
who are responsible for such sorrowful condition of future of our country!

WE ALL SHOULD TRY OUR BEST
TO CHANGE SUCH PAINFUL CONDITION!
