Song of a street sweeper


When all stars are gone
A single star herald me a dawn
Through my cracked wooden windowpane
Its beam kisses me soft and sweet
A splash of cold winter water freshen my cheeks
Cleanses my thoughts
I owe a promise for a day
To sweep the street neat and clean
 Yell not at reckless drivers
Never to mumble at naughty school kids
I bow my dear old broom
For it knows all corners well
For it picks all dirt and dust
I lean on you for my livelihood
Husband for a widow till the end
Father for orphaned daughters in hut
My dearest darling Mr.Broom;I owe you thousand bows.
