HUNGER...!!!



People are dying
of hunger, of thirst
little children now seen
begging on the streets

The tired little souls
sleep hungry at night
never knowing if again
they would see light

Doesn't the regime
have the cognizance
of the dying world?
Will it ever understand?

Lets join hands
to help those little hands
to eat, to study, to play
and definitely not to Beg

Written for One Single Impression...!!!

a very important thing to be cognizant of... good job with the prompt...

hmm.. it felt like a prosaic piece written in verse, rather than a poem..

i applaud ur effort dear, but it is not one of ur best i felt.
