Where I'm From

March 14, 2010
By Anonymous

I am from dirt and dust
My family is both
Wealthy and un-wealthy
We share all because
It's what we need
To stay close to
One another to
Hear each other cry when in pain
To hear laughter when in joy
All of these
Must be experienced
With someone
Not alone
Not single
Not afraid
Of what the world bring
Us today
Or tomorrow

The author's comments:
I wrote this piece because I think it shows how many people are today. Like they are wealthy with love but un-wealthy economicaly. I would like people to read this and kind of get a better understaning of things. From other points of veiw.
