laugh

wherever he is poor
may be he is hungry today
may be his face will be pale after taking photograph

Yet he laughs
laughing like a dew drops in the leaf

nobody understands his poverty or hungriness
by seeing his photograph

although poverty
although hungriness
although struggle

Man always want to see his face

laughing

It's so horrible how people try to deny all the bad things happening around them. That's never going to accomplish anything. This is a beautiful poem :D :D :D :D I loved it!!!

people fear negativity, they deny all bad news. they only want happy endings. whenever there is a sad story, they want to sweeten it. i respect your writing style. it keeps people awake and aware of what's outside our little bubble world

No-one really wants the truth...it is too painful...Far better to bend it to suit the popular demand

There is the sense of social outcry in this one and one has to have seen the face of hunger to truly appreciate it. I am one of those and this one struck home. Thank you for it.

Yes, peopel laugh regardless of need...and no one can tell by their faces they are poor. What a beautiful line--"laughing like a dew drops in the leaf"

This is true. From what I got after reading this is...that a man is truly in need of aid though he fights on his own to keep a positive attitude even when life has him down. And really no one can understand poverty unless they have actually been through it. I grew up being very poor. I am not by any means rich now, but I can appreciate what I have now when so long ago I went without.

"Man always want to see his face

Wow Dupur, your mind is a wonderful thing that's for sure and you write about issues in a way, I never thought to think and leaves me needing to think about it further.
