homeless children.Born flowers;grow stalks ;and die strangers.

Frail,delicate, beautifully tender
Sneaks into life a thornless flower.
Bereft,hopeless crave for a mother
Cursed, gets spleen, lifelong hunger

Heinous, uncaring nature to discover
Sprouting up into a paling colour
Precious dreams slowly melt into vapour
Bleak , sorely dying stalks wither

Soft fry, street old stager
lives and dies, utter stranger
