Remembrance...
The tide comes and the tide goes,
leaves behind tears of despair..
and a hushed silence,
the tide and fate had a brief affair..
nincompoops we are,
we cry at what is lost..
fate, it seems, is not without a sense of irony,
they had nothing to boast.
standing on the shore,
we look at the vast beauty...
never do we look deep,
to see the biggest calamity .
rocking on this easy chair,
its easy to say i know...
they dont need empathy anymore,
its time to help and show...
so this is a call to all who care,
to help and rebuild lost hopes and bases...
to show humanity is more than mere patronizing,
Lets put the smiles back on those innocent faces!!**

I thank Aakarsh from the bottom of my heart for making me realise!!

Bala, i have already mentioned earlier (check Aakarsh's comment)that v can jus talk abt the pains that poor children r undergoin but v actually cannot do anything abt it..but then, its great feeling to at least give some time thinking abt their life..this is God's way of testing patience and commitment in humans thats all i can say....
true lines...
"standing on the shore,

DUDE!! that was like a jolt to me...so, is this your debut? or a change-over from prose to poetry.whatever!!but it is good...More so, because it struck some chord in you, which i admire more.
But man,the title of this poem should have been something else, instead of thanking me..boss!mine was just a thought which occurred after seening that pic...while you ventured deep into that thought...
