THE
VEGGIE SELLER
g.venkatesh
He is up there in the street
every morning early!
to peddle his wares to the neighbourhood
to bring to every boy and girlie
his great collection of eatables good!
Hear him belt out his veggies list
with prices added in its midst!
He sings it out in his native tone
all through the morn.
Come on and buy out your
veggies
Just as your bargaining price readies;
and when you see his smiling face
he looks a happy man at that place !

a simple but moving poem about vegetable vendors who cater to our needs on a daily basis but who we mostly tend to ignore. this poem makes succeeds in making the reader look at the vegetable vendor as a fellow human-being. latha.r
