Till I Die!

Inflation is going to grow…. Grow and Grow!
Fuel prices will, up-shoot….to our sorrow.

We all will feel the PAIN,
But it is that Poor man.. who will suffer the MOST.


He’s got to get his daughter married….
Only then he could be buried!

He has worked all his life,
but still couldn’t make it to save his ill wife..

He’s expecting his soul , to accompany him, at least up to his retirement,
for his Life Savings could be put for his daughter’s secured future.

He’s lived a constrained life, …always fearing unforeseen expenses.

Though he never admitted, ….but always had feared this cruel Society’s expectations.
From his birth…Until he dies he has agreed to face this FEAR and PAIN.

But never till he dies…….will he blame his dad,
 for not allowing him taste the fruit of education.

The Rulers will bring out policies of benefit  for him….
And as always, … all the mediators will lick from his tea.
Then the statistics will set the poverty line.. below the price of a bath-soap.
He will die with many hopes…

But never will he realize, how much he needed ….to be fed with Education.
