Best Needy Poems

World is amazing,as described by philosophers
but...what actually in world is amazing
The suffering,of those caught by the waves of fate.
Why there are rich and poor,
god could have created only rich!
Then why did he do so,to make the world balanced.
Rich can serve poor by loving them and...

Needy

Wants!
They are so hard to handle.
Everyone has one, even if they don’t want one. 
Some try to hide theirs, but it shows. 
I hate to be the bearer of bad news. 

What are they exactly?
Hard to say. They show up in different ways…
all the time....

The pastor was feeling quite blue,
       Pennies on his plate were few,
       So he gave a blazing rendition
     On the church's tithing tradition
 And the pennies on his plate...

Help the Needy

By Elton Camp

You see them standing outside the door
Often at your favorite Wal-Mart store

Donations they ask that you give 
So others a better life can live

Cancer fund, heart fund all are there
In the hope that customers will care

But the last time I went...

Under a roof thatch born,
The flesh of my mama torn,
I wish I was never born,
As that day my mama was gone.

A cup of water to me is a trophy,
A tea-spoon full of honey, I am lucky.
A teenager, my head bears cement bulky 
In the site...

Four basic things that we all do need.
Our bodies crave them with actual greed.

The first is oxygen in the air
In just a few moments, quite the scare.
You need it to make ATP
And form water but not for pee.
This water you can breathe out warm
And fog...

I indeed need the things you crave
but will not make myself a stark slave.
Men who are truly in need
do not gather grains in greed...
There are no storehouses in the grave.

I need no golden chain and classy shoes,
there are better things for me to choose...
a heart...

In needy nite
I pray the hardest,

as I walk
I am a cloud on the run,

a faceless gasp awaits
my every twist of the tongue-

it is here,
in the sun,

where we are rung,

when we are fun
and enjoyed in a lump some…


Being in heat is
such grave emotion-

such that I estrange...

no job to go to . . .
I don't like needing your help -
what else can I do?...

Assignment:  25,000 dollars to help a needy family

There is such a place that is for sale for twelve thousand dollars
I would do some minor renovations for seven thousand
Turn on the utilities one thousand dollars
Stock the shelves with groceries six hundred dollars
Window treatments four hundred...

Woe am I to whom your words have torn bits
Out from my heart only to smooth, console	
Until I have again untangled wits.
Needful, I beg you patch this jagged hole
Drilled into my heart by your darkened soul....

On this UBI's Day, May 1st, to observe the greatest socioeconomic concept ever conceived.


You can't have all you want
but not having all you need,        
it's a pity, unworthy economic being,
don't expect a man plant
growing grains, fruits and juices,
rise...

I walked across the sparkling morning dew.
A path where once uncommon beauty grew.
A bench we shared, woeful, lone, and broken, 
echoes a promise that we had spoken.

Our world the moment and so full of love.
Hope flowed freely through soft currents above.
Your gentle hand entwined within...

On this UBI's Day, May 1st, to observe the greatest socioeconomic concept ever conceived.

UBI, what if I'm missing the necessary.
Solve it, opportunity for statues.
Long version 

This statue down there,
across me, don't know
what hunger is 
and what's to be needy.
No needy left a statue,
at the most...
