I have a long lonely road for my shelter
Some kindful garbage for my food
I thank you my good God above
For being so sweetly rude
Some people fling a coin
And drive into the dark
As I shake my shapeless bowl
Begging in the park.
There is so much love and passion
On the benches in the dark
But is this the love that people know
The coin or the outcast stark
Some beg for love, some beg for money,
Some beg for food, and some for being better
I beg for these like others
Then why am I called a beggar?
A well written poem. The begging bracket will remain open for the list is endless. I like the play of words in this poem.
Some beg for love, some beg for money, Some beg for food, and some for being better I beg for these like others Then why am I called a beggar? Very much revealing are your words. thank you very much my dear poet. it touched me. thank you. tony
Let me quote some lines from the poem- - I have a long lonely road for my shelter Some kindful garbage for my food I thank you my good God above For being so sweetly rude Some people fling a coin And drive into the dark As I shake my shapeless bowl Begging in the park.
Thanks Bharati Madam, , it would be an honour If a few of my lines could wake up the Human Beings within us
It would surely be an honour if a few lines of mine can help to wake up the human beings within us
