Protagonist Poem by Udaya Pant

She hated child labour
But did not help any
To make a living
Or to go to school
She cared for animals
But could not resist!

The temptation of
Eating animal flesh
She propagated
National and social service!
But did not do it
She preached simplicity
But lived ostentatiously
The utterances always
Spoke for down- trodden!

Her friends
Were all high society
She yelled at each one around her
But propagated
Love and compassion
She was a protagonist!
