The baby

just born into this

world has been greeted,

and well taken care of.

Already a variety of

labels have been

etched on him.

One for race.

One for color. One

for religion and maybe

one for a caste.

at the same time he

is told

you are born into a free world –

Congratulations!

The baby smiles and

accepts every thing in

good faith.

One day when he grows

into a boy and the boy

into man it will suddenly

dawn on him;

no body knows him

but the labels.
