In the land of plenty

Yesterday's feast was most extravagant.
So much variety pleasing one and all...
Reminded many are less fortunate.

so much abundance--yet there are those who don't have even a piece of it. Sad...thanks for the reminder

It seems it would be so easy to share ~ there's plenty to go around.

Well -- It's old G and G, alright: Gorge and Gag. Are there no places set for the needy? I don't know if it was intended as such, but this poem-pic combo was a big wake-up call to me to always share with others less fortunate whatever largesse I have been granted. Thanks, Line.

There are so many people who are needy in this world... the solution doesn't seem to be around the corner.
