Pathshala Poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

Pathshala



A small girl

In a loose and olden frock

With the slate and the lime stick pencil

That too half broken

Going to the pathshala

Held under the tree shade

Of the hamlet

With a tattered jute knapsack

Into the small hands of hers

To sit on the bare earth

Without having taken breakfast,

Just stale food

Left after the night-time meal

To sustain in and to read.
