A Stricture

A Stricture

P K Routray

Homeless million

in snow, rain and hot sun

struggle to bear the frowning weather

just to exist with us as our sister and brother.

“Leaders at the helm of affairs forget their pre-election vow”,

a painful truth that is what the picture is trying to show.

We elect them; reelect them giving them the crown and chair

Sinners surly are they, sins do we not share?

Salute I the authors of the message and presenting in the picture

Pray I all authors to come with arts with such awakening stricture/

Your work, if helps to wipe out a needy man’s tear

master piece will be your work, Him surely it will cheer.
