BEING POOR





Too many places I have been


And lots of people I have seen

A few are rich and rest are poor

The rich make merry while the poor always worry





Though I want to help the poor

They think I'm not any better

The rich can, I'm sure, help the poor

But that kind among them are rare I fear





My gift to the poor is through my deed

But that is not what they need

Money is what they want for feed

But do I have any money growing seed?





The rich lead a lavish life

Oblivious to the poor man's strife

They often wish to live to eat

While the starving poor has no retreat





Not all the rich are not the same

For some are rich only by name

With welfare of the poor deep in their heart

And that keeps them from the rest apart





And that's why I really don't mind being poor!!!
