Tears burping in his contented eyes! Simply an outstanding poem. I was wondering about the emotions that hungry man on satisfying his hunger with leftovers must be undergoing. If he was a person fallen into bad times, his emotions would be quite different from that say of a beggar.
I agree with all of the great poets below. A wonderful poem, Geetha.
A contrast in display.Beautifully delivered. Thank you.
We as humans should see that the basic needs of all are realized. This poem realizes this need. Great write
As a human being, we should see that the basic needs of all are realised, if not we should work for its realization. This poem satisfies this need.Great write.
Two situations poles apart are contrasted in this simple poem revealing a truth that things can provide intended satisfaction only in places where they are really needed. For the well-fed man, the delicious food provided was an unwanted luxury, whereas for the hungry one, it was a real delight. Well done.
On one side, in abundance, we see people wasting food as they cannot enjoy it! On the other side, we see people savouring even the last morsel, as they rarely have enough to appease their hunger! This disparity is something we cannot easily bridge! But those who have excess should think of their starving brothers and show the magnanimity to share something with them! Geetha, you have drawn two scenes strikingly opposite!
Touching. my heart felt pain for both sides. one who has all resources but unable to eat and one who can not eat due to lack of money. Oh God! save both of them.
