Marziya Shakir 2 And Half Year Old ...Crippled Motherhood


Marziya Shakir my photo shooting grand daughter is known to most of the beggars in Bandra, she is very fond of Jaffar Bhai the old Muslim beggar of Bandra Bazar Road.

Marziya has been shooting beggars since she was 2 .

Here she poses with the disabled beggar on the wheel chair

My poem

crippled
motherhood
a pain of
a mother
hidden
in a hood
she takes her
pain in her
stride
she tells me
she has no
time to brood
she begs
for her
livelihood
too much
sufferings
she withstood
she tried
running from
pillar to post
but her fate
was no good
time unloving
just stood
muslim
motherhood
a crippled
motherhood
on the soul
of dying
humanity
no better
than
driftwood
