Ornaments Not Bomb

In between light and dark
 could see a stock
 it is lying a little away
 almost on the way
 what could it be?
 is everyone's query.

The bundle is not huge 
it has a big bulge 
 wrapped in an old white cloth 
 it lay on  ground's froth
what could it be?
is everyone's query.

It could be rags bound together
could also be a waste rather
unable to brush aside 
the suspicion rose beside
what could it be?
is everyone's query.

The fear of a bomb lurked in the mind
 could be a country bomb in a find
 it looks so crude and unkempt
could burst at the slightest attempt
 could it be?
 is everyone's query.


At that moment came a woman 
she is so inhuman
filthy  and in torn clothes
rushed past on her toes
grabbed the bundle in a seize
hid behind the trees.

Those who stand around 
could not derive anything in a found
she unfastens the bundle  
 out comes her  possessions  in a tumble
 imagine not what they are 
 being ornaments and precious stones.
