Respect

Dear readers,

Here comes my another poem named “RESPECT”. This is the one thing that every creature  of the earth deserves, hence the poem.


So what if I cannot speak
The language of sophistication.
So what if I could not get
Enough of education.
So what if cannot afford the
attire of modern civilization.
So what if I work for lower wages
In a big organization.
So what if I do not bear
Any specialization.
So what if my skin tone
Is darker than your imagination.
So what if I was born
out of a gruesome situation.
So what if I don’t have a father
To prove my identification.
So what if I lay down every night
In a roofless habitation.
So what if I am not entitled
To the so-called reputation.
But,
Oh people of the world
I am too, just like you
The Almighty’s creation.
I don’t demand much from you,
No sympathy, no adulation.
The only thing if you wish to give,
Then respect is all my requisition.

Happy reading
Love!
Sonam
