I Am Hungry [POEM]

kid poor hungry village poem
Written by Shiva Dainak

I don’t know what it is for you

For me it’s been three days

I am hungry.

The age that I am in, is good 

People say, nine is to learn and play 

And all I can understand is food

I am hungry.

 

I feel not ignominy but the need

Let only few of those morsels be mine

I am hungry.

You are capable, I am not

One day I will be too, the sun is sure to shine

I will also share what I have got

But now I am hungry.
