    I Hope: Hungry

     

    I hope .. I hope .. I hope.  Family, I hope your eyes will melt after receiving the message from Jay.  (I Hope)  Welcome, my friend, welcome! Red lips

     

    Hungry

    I've thought all day long
    and have reached the conclusion
    that I should have worked
    for with sweat and toil the bread comes
    but what have I earned
    through much thought today
    a few lines written
    a poets pay
    meager wages for such toil
    but my soul hungered for more than bread
    and callused hands
    will have their chance again
    to feed the hungry
    God willing
    for poets often starve
