A Far Cry

Child
                                  Cries for
                               Lack of food
                             Mother helpless
         Tears roll down her cheeks heart full of sorrow
             Can you hear his shrill cry from the far end
                             Scrawny and lean
                               There he stand
                                   Famished
                                       Solo
