Connie Moore Poet Rhyme

Compared To What

Compared to What?

There Are a Lot of People in this World,
That Suffer So Much More than Me.
But Sometimes I Lose Sight of That
And past My Troubles I Can't See.

But Something Always Happens,
To Bring it Back in View.
And I Get a New Perspective.
Then My Troubles Seem So Few.

I Actually Have No Troubles,
Compared to Some I've Seen.
So Why Do I Insist I Do?
It Makes Me Feel Selfish and Mean.

So the next Time I Think..
That I've Really Got it Bad,
I'll Say to Myself, "Compared to What?"
Then Maybe I'll Stop Feeling Sad.
