Poems for KHUSHI

What the HECK? We have been cheated on the names of God For thousands of year we felt really odd. They said, “You born from His leg so we you must clean and beg So you must not drink the water from our well So you must not touch the tasty water of lake.” And if we would do so, they used to kill us.

I sat down under a big tamarind tree. Looking above, I saw a nest of parrot. Green parrot, with red belt on his neck was just returned from his daily search and was feeding his little ones. There on the other branch, a mother monkey was with the little one. The little one was holding her tight. The atmospher...
