‘’Way to home I across by…’'
Way to home, satchel on my back
School is over for today, road, my track!
I was told at school not just to look at things
But to observe, being a science student, a
blaring cling !
There is sensitivity in me that fails to procure
with the subjects I learn
Living a life, unaware of own society and issues,
significance burn
To know the society, its people, their lives, I
decide to take a tour
Instances at sight were enough to freeze my
steps, incentive spur
Amaze to see life struggle is different at
different phases
Contrast of lives live behind the four walls,
unlike scenario laces!

I see there, a young woman strive hard to break
the bricks, beat her hunger
when she look at her three months old baby
giggling unknown of reality, Thunders!
I move my steps forward, There I see an old man
walking along with a rough wooden stick

He was too lean and too weak to walk, a man in a
grand car push him away, abuse and kick
I was shocked to see a man with such a cruel act,
is this we are going to make our nation?
Crave for the respect is all I see in those moist
eyes, still lying in the mid of the road, helpless,vexation!
Baba, are you okay? I am here with you! Is all I
said, my heart drench in emote
His blinking moist eyes unable to recognize,
hands of blessing, I see my hardships clot
When I look at the other side, I find children
same as of my age, deprive of education

Each day to fight with poverty they beg and
search for a kind heart, in hope of benefaction
They have no one to look after them, my heart
weep! I put my hand in satchel for the tiffin
Happy to see sandwiches left in lunch box. I
offer them! Their smile, bliss life puts in !
I want to walk further but abide by the end of my
destiny for now, my home
Would walk further tomorrow to unfold the
realistic stories, to find ways to help them and bloom
Amaze to see life struggle is different at
different phases
Contrast of lives live behind the four walls,
unlike scenario laces!
