Gypsy Girl

As I trolled past the community center I found a gypsy girl was about to enter I asked her name purpose and country But I only knew she was very hungry I gave her some money a rupee or two She wore a colorful robe and I found a smell of brew Her face gathered dust but it was very sweet I had no knowledge how long she traveled the street She only said "Babu, thank you very much for food" I stood still and saw her departure Although I was not rude but I felt me crude Under the sky the world in rapture Some say gypsies are well versed in theft I only hold dear the impression she left She traveled and traveled gathering dust of the world While in our cozy rooms we were sitting curled I think she was scavenging love from the trash I can see the rush of vagrant souls rising from the ash Babu= Sir (Bengali/Hindi)
