A stunning. riveting write on the brutal realities of poverty. Such a sad reminder of how things are for many who barely survive 10+++
Saw some pics while browsing the net Ripped my heart and made my eyes wet Thank you Simone
Dear Loke, This is such a heart rending poem that speaks of poverty. It is so terrible to be born on the streets. The very necessity of life like food and shelter is in itself a problem. In India too, we have so many poverty stricken children and mothers in spite of several NGO's. I feel very sad. Thank you for sharing such a meaningful and an emotional poem. A full Vote!
Such a touching write! Here life in its grim realities is presented poignantly...! This is the story of many living in the fringes of society! Though they don't have loving parents to take care of them or a place to call their home, they do have dreams! Let the society and all of us do something so that their dreams find fruition some time. Loke, welcome back....! So happy to see you once more here! (10)

A great poem that touches the hearts of the readers. An ugly truth painted by the poet. A poem that shakes the human conscience.
A reality that we have to live with; your support is much appreciated.
