the old folks


The old folks found abandoned
In a double storey house in Wahyu Garden
The 5 inmates weak, dehydrated and malnourished
The world could have crumbled in their eyes

For months they were left alone
Occasionally somebody would send food and drinks
Now there is nothing for them
They are left to fend for themselves

How can they?
When they are old and have no money
The children just left them
The sunset of their lives

It is back to the their younger days
How they brought up their children?
How they kept their wealth or money?
There must be a backup plan....

Maybe God has other motives
Let the people show mercy and compassion
How we live and care for our parents
Before it is our turn to face the abandoned slope?

There is always a cause and effect
Nobody can escape it in his life
It is better to plant good deeds
Every time everywhere anyplace
