Who Was The Beggar? Poem by Anonymously Yours

Who Was The Beggar?



Wanted to issue reminders to god...

Went to his abode one day...

saw a lad with hands folded and eyes closed..

wondered what he might be praying..

Saw a lady pulling him from there...

Soon the boy opened his eyes..saw the saliva flowing...his eyes were not steady

the realization that he was a special child...made my heart bleed..

I thought without confusion once...oh! god..thank you for what you have given me...

Forgetting my reminders...as I walked in a pensive mood..

Thousand thoughts raced in my mind... what would have been the prayer of the lad..God did you hear? ?

As I looked around.. I saw the beggars and told Myself...Charity will give me solace..

Attempting to choose the best beggar... I searched...

Finding a 'deserving one '- quickly walked towards her..

Dropped a note into her Bowl... feeling proud of my generosity..

when she asked me' is this to be given to all around me '

again she asked..'Is it for me or should I share this'

The beggar in me smirked.. I heard it aloud..
