Beggar

You are not supposed to push and abuse.

A healthy man, no work can be your excuse.

But work is rare even for the educated.

Due to this, BEGGARY I selected.

I have to cry and wear tatters.

My self respect I have scattered.

I sing in pain and on my face keep strain.

My hunger’s fire I can’t explain.

Give no alms, no worry.

But don’t show a face scary.

I have a wife and two children.

I can’t boil them in hunger’s cauldron.

Few coins, the change, my day can change .

These metal pieces have a power strange.

I will pray for you and your progeny

An empty hand will bless, it’s time’s irony.

I will bless even without any favour .

My tongue has got a blessing’s flavour.

You live long and prosper.

But to me something you offer.

I hate to beg and demand alms.

But I am a culprit of POVERTY’s scams.
