O Ruthless Fate

O Ruthless Fate Why are you so partial?? Look at those small hands Mopping the floor Sweeping the corridor Picking the garbage Bearing all that burden A small kid With a soiled face, disheveled hair, running nose and a ragged exterior… Only thing shining are those eyes Those striking ,gleaming eyes Filled with dreams Dreams of change of fate Alas! We humans have messed up our lives Have no courage to lend a helping hand So, O my dear, dear fate Do something for such kids Or else, bestow us with courage To stand up for once To let these buds bloom Into smiling flowers With groomed interiors And exteriors Or else in no time Will even these eyes lose their sheen…….
