Poverty


Poverty

The things we have taken for granted
things we have never wanted.
We are the blessed on this earth
never to have felt any need or dearth.
The poor, sick, aged and needy
the side effect of a society which is greedy.
Having no time to look at them
giving not a single caring thought for them.
This is a curse and shame on all of us
we are all part and parcel of this curse.
To try and create an egalitarian world
is our duty and responsibility in this world.
If every compassionate heart can share
spare a little of what we can share.
This world could become a better place
for our children and us in the coming days.

This poem is for the picture. I just want to reiterate we should do something for the needy studen ts in our college, and also any updates on Pallu Jayaram's family?

  1. very good kavithai. shows your concern for the society and the poor. Two diferent views expressed by GFK and me. She expressed her concern and i expressed my jealousy. We shall wait to see what chockan and other kavignars express.

  2. "The poor, sick, aged and needy
    the side effect of a society which is greedy"
    is the notable line.
    We are behind .. What we want..not really what we need. This is the reason for the indiscrimination in and arround.
