Two Men

Two Men

Two men entered the park

It was still bright evening not much dark!

Out of two one was clad in rich suit

While the other was clad in

The dusty torn shirt and trousers!

Both set on the bench

One with torn,

Took out corn and ate.

One with suit,

Though having fruit,

chose not to eat

As suit is more costly than feast!

--------------------------------------

One with torn

Went and played in the sand

Explored the magical swings,

Climbed on the slides,

Came back down feeling wild!

He was having all the fun

Laughing and living all at ones.

One with suit

Forbid himself from playing

or surfing in the ocean of happiness

Chose to sit and watched others at play

As suit is more costly

Than the cheap fun and clay.

It was time  to close the park

One with torn went happily towards home

One with suit,went sadly towards  home

But suit was intact,

There was not a single scratch.
