Notes About The Poem

Miles From Ukraine

glass half empty half full
my stomach well fed
i am warm and have a roof
yet I'd have the gall to ask for more

So true, Line. We take so much for granted in our lives and need to show much more thankfulness than we commonly do (I mean "we" as a people in general)

Such meaning in these short lines! Wonderful, especially when paired with the title. I truly enjoyed reading this thought-provoking verse, Line.
