NOT AS HAPPY AS U !

life has many ups and downs Just be thankful for whatever u have today.! because someone, somewhere is not as happy as u ! :)

Sometimes in life we feel so screwed,

 But someone, somewhere is not as happy as you.

 Somewhere far at the border 

when a soldier sleeps, 

Missing his loved ones he silently weeps.

Somewhere a mother painfully sighs,

 because her new born baby didn't open her eyes. 

Not far away a poor dad silently cries,

 When he sees his son begging for a bowl of rice.

 At a distance in an orphanage a little girl's sad,

When she misses her mom and dad.

 So at times you don't have reasons to smile,

 Say to yourself that you're happy and fine.

 Because life is beautiful and so as you ! 

And someone, somewhere is not as happy as you !

[Coyote Poetry]

I like the logic of this poem. I was send to Africa for water, food and medicine missions in the nineties. I saw people starving to death and no place to rest. I learn to appreciate the simple things like a place to rest, food and safe water. I like the desire and the positive ending to the outstanding poem.

You point out what we should adhere to. This really makes one think and appreciate what they have. Great poem.

you definitely need to work on the last two lines..It seems that you saw the end and didn't give it too much thought...I am a bit old to appreciate the U for you....Maybe I am old fashioned....I have no idea how long this took you but it seems as a whole that it may have been a little hurried...Try doing a poem and putting it to one side for a day or two, then go back and read it very carefully..you may be surprised at how much you might want to alter
