Dear Humans…

-by YFA supporter Meeta Jain Nagpal as part of #FreeShankarDelhiZoo Campaign

Dear Humans,

Come, look at me,

I am there for you to sight.

I should not feel any pain,

I am kept in chains -tied.

I cannot show my anger, Nor, should I show my fear.

I am just an elephant,

I don’t have the right to shed a tear.

The sky is not mine,

nor do the trees belong to me.

A piece of cloud and broken sun rays,

is all I get to see.

I want you to live my life, for a single day.

Is it truly what I deserve ?

Please come forward and Say…

Your

Shankar
