STRANGER
Lost in a megapolis,
unknown stay,
Searched for work
opportunity way,
Moved to the local
train bus stand,
Alone in busy
transport demand,(1)
A place to ride, get
down, and move,
Nobody bothers to
notice showing,
Stand-alone at the
mall evening,
The light helluva
goods alluring, (2)
Galleries attract
beeline laughter,
Grabbing selected
items enamor,
Look at them exchange
smiles,
Less spoken brushed
aside styles, (3)
A city with a million
people, stay,
Should we talk to
strangers? way,
Buys done payment
vanish soon,
Bystanders look
amazed and feel boon, (4)
Alone among the crowd
general,
The whole city
witness faces murals,
Traveled overseas
education ends,
Plum post career
hardly befriends, (5)
The invisible barrier
shrinks the mind,
Alien in the treasure
island find,
Check identity visa
passport fit,
Stranger in danger
lacks unfit, (6)
Moved amidst village,
amuse look,
Children laugh at
point yet hook,
Dress differs,
stranger no danger,
Loving, caring,
gentle lives allure, (7)
Less persistent on name place,
Provide comfort,
food, shelter, grace,
It happened citizens
were suspicious,
Stranger very sight a
few furious, (viii)
Think kidnappers of
children hate,
Human commits deeds
reciprocate,
Strangers heard
through the news,
Saintly person
unknown muse, (9)
Seen infinite faith
humans mingle,
The person traveler
walks single,
Last but not least,
bus drivers,
The pilot of the
flight or train savior, (10)
A stranger to all of
us we trust,
Unfailingly love a
stranger most,
Unfortunately, the situation
is in danger,
But an evil person
faced a stranger. (11)
