Desires

" Mama" the boy clinging on mama's saree 

" I want that sugar candies, please !!!"

Mama in tears but no rupee left 

Drags the boy to home " No, later " 

"Mama" the girl clinging on mama's hand 

" I want that yellow frock, please !!!" 

Mama in tears glance at her daughter 

She says, " No, not now " 

A boy in rags come running clinging to Father's hand 

" Papa " I want a toy car, please!!!" 

Papa in shock utter no words 

The boys in Shanties 

The girls in huts 

Cries for desires 

They yell for desires 

" DESIRES" varies; Changes.
