Streetchildren

 By Akash Lohia

 

 

I fell in love with street children

And their naked feet which marched through their agony

With brightest smile under the skies.

 

Spirits higher than clouds and passion deeper than ocean

I fell in love with street children

Till I see veins painting the hunger on their skin

And chest seems like hanger carrying their skin.

 

I fell in love with street children.
