Make Poverty History!

Have you ever heard a little girl cry?
Thinking that her mother will die?
Maybe next day she'll be alone,
Her life is hard and she can't even moan...

Make Poverty History!

Have you ever gone without food?
Because that girl is not in a good mood,
Today she only had some bread,
Becuase her family's so poor she can't be fed...

Make Poverty History!

Have you ever thought about their life?
For this girl it's work and strife,
She can't even go to school,
So when she's older she'll be a fool...

Make Poverty History!

Have you ever lay in your home dying?
With no one there for you crying?
Well that little girl today,
She drew her last breath in the month of May.

Make Poverty History!

Have you ever thought this isn't fair?
Well than you should write to Mr.Blair,
We should put up a fight,
To campaign for justice and what is right.

MAKE POVERTY HISTORY !




Btw I wrote this poem in May, and only realised it when I was clearing out Word, C+C please :)

even though i think that there will always be poverty in the world, i think the poem is quite sad, thinking of the children that dieing every 3 seconds. in the time i have taken to type this 5 children have died :(
