About This Poem

Silence

Silence……while the world grows pregnant on selfish
Who care about the needy my table has a filled dish
Break the silence if no world hunger is what you wish

    Hi Joy, a beautiful and uplifting poem. My daughter just returned from Africa last week, and it is sad in many areas. Well done and congratulations on your win. Lee

    Wellington Avatar Joy Wellington Date: 9/4/2012 9:05:00 AM Block poet from commenting on your poetry

    Yes, it is sad that a country that is so rich in some parts is so poor in other parts. Africa is like a woman raped...so sad!

    Yes, there is some very hungry or starving people in the world..I don't know altogether what can be done to help it though..Great topic chosen and excellen presentation for the contest...Winning material for sure..Yes, the beach can just wash away my stress as long as I don't get in the water where jellyfish reside..Just lying in the sun and soaking its warmth for a few days would fix some of my body's aches and pains..Sara

    We can just do what comes to us on a personal level. Universally...the powers that be will have to act...fat chance though! One love Sara
