Why are weak people forgotten in times of need, <br />Yet when others seek aid, they never displease? <br /> <br />Why are the advisors, the sages, the matured, <br />Regularly shunned, turned away from and ignored? <br /> <br />When the advised are getting on with life, <br />Why can't they see the advisors' strife? <br /> <br />Why does it take, the helpers to ask, <br />For a shoulder to cry on or a sterdy hand? <br /> <br />When will this injustice cease or break, <br />Ending the advisors' hidden heart ache?<br /><br />Rukhsar Ahmed<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/advisors/
