Help and Share

My tummy says, “Help!”

Would you share?

Do you care?

Did you feel what I felt?

Sitting beside you,

Staring at you;

The airplane flew,

The amount you chew.

Singing,

Growling;

My tummy,

I want Mommy.

The guy beside me,

Gulping selfishly;

He knows I’m hungry,

He doesn’t show any worry.

Society,

So much of cruelty;

I’m not asking for sympathy,

I don’t need your empathy.

Mister,

Finished his burger;

It’ll make him larger,

It’ll make him die faster.

I’m no difference,

My tummy lacks a conference;

No delegations,

No visitors.

I’ll, too die,

In hunger;

My body turns weaker,

Bony skeleton doesn’t lie.

How much can one eat?

Look, there’s a seat!

Can I fit in?

A couple is talking.

I hopped in,

“Help and share?”

“Come on in!”

Joyfully they said.

Words of laughter,

Don’t take them for granted;

They must be uttered,

Sit down and thank them later.

Our mouths,

It isn’t just for food;

Too much input isn’t good,

You shape your own house.

My tummy says, “Glad!”

They would share;

They do care,

Orphan no longer I am.

The couple,

Went to see my Principal;

Humble people,

My life is now worth a double.

Miracles do happen,

Caring to the homeless;

You’re also human,

Don’t think you’re useless.
