Rich or poor,saint and sinner

 

Rich or Poor, or Saint and Sinner

Rich and affluent commute by  expensive car

the poor  by walk for miles   far and far,

the poor near signals  stand for alms,

rich throws a coin unwilling with looks  cold

poor accepts swalloing his fate  and times;

rich has a  kitchen modern well equipped

poor bakes his stale food  his  charcoals'  custom

micro oven rich man's  must ,on and on 

the poor washes his limited  vessels  in  angst,

 sticky  smell and decayed parts swell all around;

child of the poor sleeps in  cradle improvised sari,

 rich man's  offspring  sleeps comfort of lullaby,

rich enjoys t shirts  from mall  and show rooms

while  the poor, his child in ragged craves   for patches  good.

more often than not, poor bare foot and body exposed;

But now, the times are changing, for  times  anew;

 no difference between the rich and poor,

for aids,  loans rescue all where freedom enjoins

  pretension and caution rule the have not

rich  has a tag of show and  showy not.
