Times of hardship

 Times of hardship 


I see a street woman bottle feeding her baby

To her or the baby the pavement did not matter.


Suddenly the milk turned black in colour

Although the milk tasted the same

Confusion runs through the little ones brains

A loud cry echoed from the side of the pavement

The sound of cry was drowned by this mothers thoughtful whisper "baby my little one please don't cry for I'm sure you are not colour blind".

Understand as well as it is hard to find milk these days even of any colour or kind.
