Reality
Ventured out on a casual stroll
In the street saw I
A kid cajole
its mom , for a decent toy buy
Shabby looks, clothes tattered
Cruel 'NO' is what I hear
Dreaming kid's heart shattered
Rolling down its cheek, I see a tear
Kid rest his head, couched safe
Mom sits there and embrace
She had no penny
To feed her little sonny
Harsh was reality that hit her hard
Begging continued on the street
No signs of betterness on the card
She stood fighting the cold, bare feet
A stranger crossed the busy road
Filled of trucks with heavy load
Picked the toy from the vendor
Placed it in the hands of the little wonder
A gentle tender smile
Is what I'd been waiting all the while
Bewildered, I stand there
Ahh! there are people who care and share..
