Poem
The mother who loves her baby
more than her own life 
Licked the withered baby tenderly
And then, her long weak trunk rest on the baby 
Serenely drop-off hot tears for want of liberty 
Love is sharper than a diamond edge; 
big as the sea, and deeper without end

The lives trapped in a deep abandoned well 
Little water left over from the long drought 
Is a lucky gift from unlucky fate? 
The baby was a tiny innocent scapegoat
Sluggish creature remained calm  
Under the hungry belly of weeping mother
That it brings her incredible pain
Determination of the mother 
To release from the bondage is awesome
Starved and weak and scarcely fit to crawl, 
tried to find a way across the rocky wall
 Gravity pulls them back so tightly together

She thought and recalled about wonderful days
“We travelled along leisurely 
Over moorlands and forests and plains
with full of vegetation and abundant water valleys 
 No one interrupted us and any fences and barricades!”

“Freedom is our heritage
Gift of ancestors the pasture lands, 
Green forest canopy, clean water holes 
And passages through life and many more 
For our existence! 
Those who invaded our habitat 
Charged at us brutally
Oh… my kith and kin vanishing slowly”
She tried not to shedding tears,

Group of people gathered around the top edge of the trap
There was a pandemonium!
Some scolded “you rascal how much our crops destroyed”
 While some deep-hearted men and women, 
Express grief for their momentous fate in silence 
They dropped some thing to eat miserable captives
Still the mother or kid has no idea 
About the rescue operation planned for them   
That leaves her withered heart burning


“They have shown their prodigious ferocity
They were not warned beforehand
Human beings are beasts that consume
Even the life of an innocent little one! 
Listen! The only force stronger than cruelty 
is the bond formed among a mother and child!”
