I see the difference..

I see the difference..

A Poem by Mohd Ahmad
"

I wrote this on my journey from New Delhi to Lucknow on a train.. i wrote what i saw during my journey.. it talks about the unfortunate condition of poor which is getting worse day by day...

"
I see new faces in every journey of mine, some similar, some divided by financial lines.. Some having different skin, some of similar kinds.. I see the difference in every journey of mine.. They say man is a social animal, man is supposed to be a doer, but i never found the ''social'' when its about the poor.. I see the difference in every journey of mine.. Some chew water as their only food, while some get seven course meal with expensive red wine.. I see the difference in every journey of mine.. Some live beside the track, in dearth of a proper bed, covering themselves with old jute sack.. while some sleep on a big cotton pile.. I see the difference in every journey of mine.. I see kids playing on the railway line , some laughing , some crying , some sleeping over there until the first sunshine.. I see the difference in every journey of mine... Pizza wrappers thrown by some are used by some for their books to bind.. Some waste food and water without any regret while some never get to see a McDonald's happy meal in their whole lifetime.. I see the difference in every journey of mine.. Little hands holding water bottles to sell instead of toys and pens.. Their mothers wearing copper as their only gem.. While some have precious necklaces with the best of designs.. Poor becomes a commodity for the rich to malign.. I see the difference in every journey of mine.. Some bear the weights of others just for the sake of money, some treat poor as if being poor is a crime.. Pain could easily be seen in their eyes.. I see the difference in every journey of mine.. I see the pain in every poor eye...
