To Give and Take

Why should I give 
To the poor
To the less fortunate
Maybe because I have rent
A piece of
The sky
The  sea
The land
The mountain
Too long to share 
Maybe because I have taken
Some of 
The sunlight
The food
The water
The air
Too much to keep by myself 
Maybe I have a bigger share 
Than I'm deserved
