ZEBRA CROSSING:
With her waddling gait and engorged breasts
Waiting for the vehicles to stop
As the little ones wait for her on the other side of road
The howling sounds of the pups
The busy traffic and a motherly love
As she stops for a huge truck to roll
One wrong step and six lives are gone
She looks at the traffic light
People start crossing the zebra line
She can’t wait any more in the deafening sound of the traffic
Suddenly a screeching noise
She looks at a girl and cross the zebra line
Her eyes glitter with a sense of gratitude
As she is greeted by her little ones
Another day another night under the sky..
