Do Not Drink Alcohol and Drive

Do not drink alcohol and drive...... A beautiful day brighten by a blue clouds The smile of the sun lighten by its rays Happily walking on the pavement of the road Watching different vehicles that over crowd the roads My eyes are catching a little boy try to cross the road and knocked by a vehicle and thrown down to the street Rushing to him and holding him in my hands He was crying for his mother with stricken fear My heart was broken in to pieces with sad and sorrow Waited for ambulance that took long way to come Looking at the sky and asking God to save this innocent child Then I saw his mouth tremble followed by blood oozing He died in my arms without seeing his loving mother I could not hold my emotion any more, my tears rolled down The driver of the vehicle was in drunken state and watching Will he allow his own son to die like this way on the road Will he remember this day and think everyone as his sons Is there any difference between criminals and him?
