wide-eyed they peer
through windows so sheer
into dimly lit rooms
where christmas trees beckon
wide-eyed they peer
through welcoming doors
into red bright rooms
where diwali candles reckon
wide-eyed wide-eyed
where hanukkahs sway
gahambars, nirvana, and gurpurbs play
tormented orphans
everywhere
here here
young children
leave god aside
leave moses, jesus
muhammad too
eid has come forth
to claim you all
the lost, the orphaned
all souls
land has affirmed
its parenthood
restoring all as whole
