Is Being Poor a Crime

The birds chirping Like the sound of bell The rugged look of poor Their stale smell The smiling children With a wonderful spell The polluted surroundings And lots more The world seems brighter For those who snore Under microscope or sunlight Look at the matter with a naked eye Matters of poverty have gone too far Politicians are sleeping to start a war Filling their pockets to live royally What of those poor working loyally The pile of work of rich is too high To consider about the poor So all they do is lie Think once for goodness sake What about those things vanishing on earth People will become extinct like all things do Have you no shame or fear of the lord Nothing will happen if you do well out of the blue The life of poor forever in my eye I wouldn't be asleep if I thought I had die It is poignant and very hard to forget The feel of being poor once you are left To feed and clothe is not a joke To smile and live is a great hope To beg, and cheat is not proper You are role models teach them the way Give them one chance A high standard of living and a good pay They will make you proud in every way For the love of God, just do as I say I wish your well-being and a bright day...:)
