A cry not heard!
Ray of light
far from sight
All his need
is a caring feed
A place to sleep,
a blanket to keep -
the despodent waif
Warm and safe
Cruel men see
the poor one plead,
Emptiness filled hearts
hesitant to share a part.
On the pavement's corner sits
this lad a bit.
Weak and pale
telling his tale
None hear
Do they feign fear?
Hoping - is all he could do
for some fresh hot stew
Every passer-by
down the lane
Ignore this guy
and all his pain
Why is this scene not wiping off my brain
Serene it Remains
Revives time and again
As I sit by the window of the train.
