Economic Hardship

Though it is very hard to survive ,
You can still surmount  this tough situation,
Being a single parent is not easy,
And losing ones  job due to recession
Is adding salt to an earthworm ,

But be strong and look up the sky,
For help comes when you least expect ,

Sun rises and the flower blossoms ,
Cloud cries and the fries dance for the coming rain .
