Friendship is one of the things that is very nice,
And it also doesn’t have a price,
If you have a friend in your land,
He will definitely lend a hand,
So, everyone, make a friend,
They will be someone on whom you can depend.
Mahatma Gandhi
To the silent cries,
And let them rise,
They shall know that they are worth,
They are here on this Earth,
To create a future,
They don’t need a ruler,
They are much more than we think,
But we make them shrink!
Wonder who ‘they’ are in this poem? They are the unprivileged who are shown useless from their looks and way of living, but they are, after all, humans, suitable? They have taken birth on this Earth so they have as much right as we do. We have ignored their silent cries even knowing that they can change the world with a bit of education. We just need to trust them.
