found this 2 poems in a bk. will transfer them to the 'about me' section later . featuring one of them . called Every Drop Counts...
Last night a hand reached out to me
Its arm withered by want and apathy
Another drought in a nameless place
Another child with flies on its face
I close my eyes and avoid the news
I've seen it all before, the children always lose
Tiny fingers, tiny hands
Broken hearts in a stranger's land
Whatever i do, whatever i say
It won't make the world spin another way
Whatever i think, whatever i dream
Won't make this image appear less obscene
Wont' do no good to sing, cry and shout
My floods of tears won't end the drought
Tiny fingers, tiny hands
Broken hearts in a stranger's land
Think again, think again
I'm too wrapped up in my pain
Gotta wake up and walk into reality
Any self doubt is just a trivality
And though my voice sounds pretty small
If we shout together, we can break down walls
Tiny fingers, tiny hands
Broken hearts in a stranger's land
Whatever we do, whatever we say
We can still make a difference, starting today
With a drop at a time, if we work as a team
We can all take a bucket down to the stream
Soon a river of compassion, a flood of joy
Will create an ocean of hope all can enjoy
Nice?
