'Too Good To Be True'.

Updated: Jul 17, 2025

By Rahul Marskole


'One Morning, 

I breathed pure air, drank pure water & was wearing warm nice clothes. 

I had a breakfast. It was Idli and Sambar. 

I know it sounds too good to be true. 


At Afternoon, 

I went out in my car. In a 5-star hotel. I had a lunch. It was rice with lentils. So delicious. Ate my full. 

For sweets, I ordered Gulab Jamun. 

I know it sounds too good to be true. 


At Evening, 

I had some friends over. 

Fancy clothes from top to bottom. 

Had some laughs with Tea and Baguette.

I know it sounds too good to be true. 


At Dinner, 

The whole family sat around the table.

We thanked the God for food. 

Enjoyed Roti, Curd Rice and Matar Paneer.

Shared our day's work. 

After the meal. 

We went to walk 

I know it sounds too good to be true. 


After the walk. I went to bed. 

Suddenly the alarm rang. I opened my eyes. 

Found myself back on the streets. 

I knew it was too good to be true'. 


The End
