Gems In The Garbage Heap

Gems In The Garbage Heap

It was the time of the afternoon 

I was returning from work 

The bright sun was bothering me

I was lusting for water

Looking here and there


On the spur of the moment

I saw some children 

Walking in the streets 

With their bare feets


They worn-torn clothes

They were carrying sacks

On their shoulders 

Their eyes were 

Gleaming with hunger


They were searching for something 

In the garbage heap 

With a gre

at passion

As they were looking for the gems

Lost somewhere in the junk pile


Their day passes

Roaming on the streets 

Searching for the gems 

Which enables them 

To get some grains


Seeing them 

Searching the gems

Forced me to think

Where we stand


The little children 

Should enjoy their life 

Who should study alike

To make their future bright

They were searching the gems 

In the junk pile, to be alive
