Rich by heart
The monsoon comes
The monsoon goes
Flooding all the pavements with water
The child by the footpath
Stands beside his mother
The winter comes
The winted goes
Making everyone quiver in cold
The child by the footpath hugs his mom The summer comes
The summer goes
Blistering sunlight provides burning sensation in everyone's integument
The child by the footpath
Stays with his mom trying his best
To collect some water
About this poem
It's about a child's love for his mother In this world when most of the wellbred are scornful to their parents this child of the footpath shares his every little exaltation and anguishment with his mom.
