VENDOR

 

VENDOR

Fiery summer heat after dawn,

Humans dislike, suffer, mourn,

The cloudless sun blazes, pitiless,

No bird in the sky life distress, (1)

 

Trees were cut off a few years ago,

Metal roads amidst market go,

Happen to pass in my car saw,

Vendors a few selling fruit owe, (2)

 

Under the sun, sweltering heat,

Beg to customers invites greet,

Halted, I came out of the car, stood,

Vendors are sitting, sadly brood, (3)

 

Unbearable for a few minutes felt,

Back home, get sad, my heart melt,

Came to know, a measure of hunger,

Selling few fruits to earn meager, (4)

 

The hearth burn rice pan boils,

Children females eat their toils,

A few rupees coins save humans,

Felt sad had tears vendors can, (5)

 

Ten lives can't match their duty,

I saw in the market sight beauty,

Measured the pain of hunger fit,

Humans can work hard to defeat, (6)

 

The class great wall felt different,

A few humans never know decent,

Have plenty of food easy reach,

Their choice preferences preach, (7)

 

The home air-cooled luxury a lot,

Stay at home, life is easy, escort,

Less such life acquainted hunger,

Thought how leads a life a vendor, (viii)

 

Walks in the street alone, calling,

Expect someone to ask marketing,

Few goods sold variety numerous,

Females look interested and curious, (9)

 

Hawkers whole day walk to sale,

Summer season earning prevail,

Ride water vegetable fries dinner,

Early morning lunch, the same winner, (10)

 

Sleep comfortably while the vendor waits,

Wait for rain, soaked, sale desperate,

Saw significant lives fight superbly,

Miraculous vendor survives visibly. (11)
