A Lonely Smile Poem by Sreekala Sukumaran
A Lonely Smile
Seeing a child in an orphanage,
Just can’t imagine the plight,
Feeling of sadness arise,
Who had done that mistake?
No smile, no laugh in him,
Sitting with a blank expression,
Can see loneliness in his roving eyes,
Why has he to suffer like this?
Came to know he then arrived,
Seated along with other boys,
Not knowing it is his new home,
Nor what made him to be here?
Lost his beloveds all of a sudden,
Became an orphan in a single day,
Can feel the pain he is bearing,
Who is responsible for this?
He is only a kid of five years,
Unable to forget his innocent face,
Seeing his looks hurts me a lot,
What a miserable sight is it?
Went near him spoke lovingly,
And touched his lovable face,
Raised his little head and looked upon me,
Tiny lips widened to a cute adorable smile…
You really managed to move me as a reader Your compassion and sympathy is so nicely expressed that it stirs us to feel with the child and give him a place in our prayers. Thinking still about the why... We just may have to accept that a lot of things happen in our world for reasons we cannot understand.
Elegiac [A mournful] poetry …passionately worded wreathed.. wrung by all bosom You’ve carried me to that height of passion…and planted in my psyche…what is next? Where is the next? When will it end? Who’ll extend loving and caressing hand? Ma’am it’s too much for wee bosom…why you can feel it… 10++ [as prayers for the orphans] Ms. Nivedita UK
