Hunger of a Little Lad

In my way back home 
I saw a little kid
Begging for alms 
As he was hungry ....

He wore a ragged cloth.. 
His clothes are not washed 
He was like a skeleton 
Covered with skin... 
He was too thin
wishing only to live 
without hungner.

That little lad was
Not bothered of his looks
Not bothered of going 
To schools,
His only wish, 
Was to fill his stomach 
Without struggling in hunger.... 
I gave him few coins 
And came back home...!
He gave me a 
Thankful smile and vanished...., 

This bothered me... 
I do have everything 
Enough for my life
But that little lad
Doesn't have any... 

That little lad taught me
We can live in this world happily
If there is no hunger....
