It was weeks they had eaten, not belly full but even a mouthful.
few who hadn’t seen as much water that can slake their days old thirst.
With my naked eye, I could count the number of bones that made their ribs.
And stomach, that had already squeezed a few inches deep into the bodyline.
They walk …On that rocky way up the hill and down the valley.
Just with a desire to at least catch a glimpse of that extraordinary sight.
A carafe of clean water...to quench their thirst.
Yes!! Though not a pitcher full, they find a few drops of water really pure but saline.
To their distress, Not in the valley of sand, but in the gulch of eyes,
Many people through the world do experience this hard lifeless life.
with nothing much to do of hunger and thirst, but to die.
water is still a necessity to many or few, not a luxury but for you.
They crave to see the day, When they don't have to stagger on the stumbling stones,
An ecstatic time to come, with some food and water, to keep them alive.
Do not lavish away the water, it’s the life you are taking out of someone.
Please save.. if not much, just a 1000th of what you take..
for there are people, from the just born to the ones left to die,
who cry, we want to live, give us just a drop please…..!
