The Little Boy outside my office
As I came out of the building Main,
I saw a little boy,with a mangled mane.
His hands and clothes were all dirty,
And it made my heart fill with pity.
My hand went into the pocket ,
And came back with a dollar.
His hand reached the upturned shirt collar,
And he looked back in indignant surprise.
Mister do you think am I a begger,he asked.
Hmm. Err... Well... was what I said.
It was merely to get you a toy,
Was all I told the little boy.
The boy said,I am a professional,
I earn my living, by working .
And not by begging alms,
I steal watches off people's arms.
Shocked and surprised I opened the cab gate,
As it was getting late.
I looked at my wrist for time,
But the watch that was gone, was Mine!!! Tourist spots around the world: http://tourist2008.blogspot.com/2007/09/maluku-islands-indonesia.html
