Day 6 of the Mindful Writing Challenge. My fifth Small Stone below. Please, enjoy
Hunger
The hut is bare and the pots are dry
The fire in the hearth long gone cold
Clinging to her mother’s worn skirts
A little stomach rumbles incessantly in protest
Echoing the multitudes asleep in forced stupor
A mother’s love is tested
In the most horrible way
Who will buy my ‘priceless’ gem?
I must feed the Multitudes
