To those in need.

We stand so vainly ,full pockets and bellies.
Lazing around watching our wide screen tellies.
Munching away on snacks upon snacks.
Cash in our cards and designer clothes on our backs!
Do we stop to think about little maryam who is fighting for her life ,
or Ali across the sea who lost his kids and wife.
How about Joseph who is just a 4 year old,
scraping through the trash and dirt in agonising cold.
Young and old suffering in this damned day and age,
and we all sit responsible for their anger and their rage.
Give a little to those in need .
Be the one to water the seed.
Say a prayer ,the least you can do.
Protect mankind so God protects you.

I am crying

Thanks for you, and sorry for those poor people. I feel so sorry.
