Behind the temple near railway track
A cluster of shanties with dwellers overpacked:
Ill clad, in tatters they shiver in winter

This poem will bring out the compassion in most people, at the very least it should lead to some soul searching. The message is beautifully transmitted in your poem.
A tremendous poem, Om. I totally agree. Altruism does not exist. A giver always receives. The world has to come to equilibrium, where charity is no longer required and all men can have dignity. Thanks for sharing. Peace
Distribution in compassion is nothing but charity; Inflating givers' ego, priding in magnanimity; Convicting the receiver to a degraded stratum.......very nicely envisioned.Deep feeling. Beautiful poem.Many thanks.

Fine composition of effective poetry with a rare kind of tale told for pensive reading..
Sharing among equals is a sign of comradeire; Distribution in compassion is nothing but charity; I am with you my friend, the world is changing, let us hope that we will live to see it. Just like in my dreams, no hungry child no crying mothers for their lost in war sons, no other ignorance, fair share may fix one of our world troubles. The simple living should be all people's aim. One day my friend, I hope for it one day.
Great write.....! Great thoughts! Yes... it is not fair to dole away money as charity to inflate our own ego. Each one has the right to live in dignity and equality. The social dispensation that allows wealth to get heaped in the hands of a few at the detriment of others is not justifiable. But the act of the elderly lady is much more commendable than those of the ones who turned away in scorn! Today I read about the remarkable act of charity by the face book founder Mark Zuckerberg......At such a young age, what an achievement and what magnanimity! Top marks!
