Aroma Of Food Poem by Pradip Chattopadhyay

Aroma Of Food

Rating: 4.5


As she serves the food
the smell permeates the air
ah, food's aroma is so good
and I've of it a fair share.

I don't know what hunger is
how many on earth go unfed
I get whenever I please
I bother about the quality instead.

I talk of freedom and free will
care about health and hygiene
I have my assured meal
hunger's face I haven't seen.

I'm a man well fed
live in the fullness of good meals
I don't have to take it in my head

in this world hunger still kills.

An excellent poem, Pradip. It starts with a simple appeal to the senses and then leads on to unexpected territory - conscience, inequality, hunger. I like your honesty.
