While children are dying
And parents weeping,
The debate on the causes
Is worrying with illogical nuances....!
Some blame irony of fate
Others ' litchi ' fruit
No one is ready to accept their condition
The root cause is ' malnutrition'....!
As long as apathy of rulers continues
There will be no respite from malaria or encephalitis
Many more kids may succumb
To the rotten system - a graveyard with a tomb....
You are right. The absence of basic needs like clean water, nutritional foods, and cleanliness are the main causes for this death. But as always blame game is the best way to shed responsibility. Nice poem. Thanks for posting.
