At the Temple

Today,at the temple, i saw a very old woman,
Cleaning the sarpa [snake] idols under the banyan tree,
With her bare hands, her hands were shaking,
In fact, her whole body was shaking,
With bent head, and poor eyesight,
She was just embrcing the idols, as if her children,
there was deep sorrow in her eyes
she was not in rags, or did’nt look hungry,
But she was very lonely
She was not aware of the people passing by,
I watched her, wanted to talk to her, but I did’nt
She was lost in a world of her own,
WHY GOD,WHY IS SHE LEFT ALONE???
DON’T YOU HAVE A WAY TO END HER SORROW??????
