Silent Cries of Poverty: A Call to Action

Amidst the chaos of the world we see,

Lies a heart-wrenching reality.

Poverty, a curse that shadows the land,

And steals from people what they hold in their hand.

The sun may shine bright, and the winds may blow,

But those in poverty, no happiness they know.

Their dreams, their hopes, their aspirations,

Are crushed by the weight of deprivation.

In a world of abundance, it seems unfair,

That some must struggle just to survive out there.

Their hunger, their pain, their silent cries,

Are lost in the noise of life passing by.

But we must not forget, for in their eyes,

Lies a story of hardship, of sacrifice.

Forced to live with nothing, yet they endure,

With a strength that is pure, and a spirit so pure.

They teach us that happiness is not in possessions,

But in the joy of life's simple expressions.

They remind us of the beauty in our hearts,

And the need to play a role in their parts.

For poverty is a wound that needs to be healed,

By the love and kindness that humanity can yield.

Let's open our hearts, let's lend a hand,

And bring hope to those who struggle to stand.

For only then can we truly see,

A world that's fair, and poverty-free.

A world where love and compassion reign,

And the heartache of poverty is never seen again.
