How much dirty and infected is truce, Is not even in their thinking – brines.     One small stick, with a hook on it’s tip, To stir, shake and pick from the garbage. They do consider it as a…

And runs towards the end with tears…………… In between Lot many roses reflect their fragrance Lot many times bumble bees dance around them We don’t count. How many times sun wraps us with its warmth?
