Beggars Poem by Ummi Abdullah

Beggars



Migrant like wild birds
Roaming round the street
Stretching out dirty bowls
Sleeping on bare floor
Clothed in rags
Scale on skin like tilapia fish
Rings on their head
Made by dry worms
Laboring as a child
Struggling from hand to mouth
Matching thorns and not sand
Without shoes
Their future crying for help.
