What Do You Think of When You See the Word "Fair"?
fair.
some people may look at that word
and think of a fun place
where people from your town,
or people from all over the state
go to have fun.
other people may think of a science fair,
or even people being honest.
when i think of the word fair,
i think how the world would be if life was fair.
i will admit,
i am a very lucky person
to have a family who loves me,
a roof over my head,
food at the dinner table,
and much more.
but then i think of how other people
don't have the simplest thing
like a loving family.
that's not fair.
some don't have clean water to drink from,
a bed to sleep on,
food at the dinner table,
clean clothes to wear,
or a good education.
why can't this world be fair?
there are too many people without shelter,
or even the small things in life we don't notice
could be the major things in life for the people who
aren't as lucky as you and me.
whenever i see the word fair,
i think of how the world would be if life was fair.
fair.
what do you think of
when you see
the word
fair?
