Denied Luck

"Give me some bucks, something to eat,
I have no home to go in this scorching heat."
Unlucky soul deprived of everything,
Cried for help hoping to get something.

Clouds of uncertainty hovers her life,
As each day passes begging for alms.
Carrying a little life in her weary hands,
Day long Nothing to eat worth a pound.

Child cried out of long hunger,
Tears wet her eyes being a mother.
Doors after doors she knocked replied,
"Watchman don't let them in next time."

Every richness she came across,
to her dismay it was poor at heart.
Everyone is busy making his fortune,
No one has time to hear her sad tune.

Night falls without a piece of meal,
Her wounded life needed to heal.
Burdened with the load of two lives,
Helpless but she strive hard to survive.

Frustrated with her denied life,
At last she got some cooked rice.
Thanking the great soul for his kind,
It felt like a million dollar find.

Overcoming the day long hunger,
Found a roadside tree as shelter.
Child slept in the warmth of her arms,
As her tired eyes gazed the night sky.

She feared going to sleep,
As the new day slowly creep.
For each day she strive for some bucks,
To Overcome the curse of her denied luck.

Lets not neglect those who are deprived by their birth and Help them to improve their lives.

It took almost 3 hours, more than the earlier one.
