What goes around

What goes around

A Poem by buterfligirl
"

Do to others what you would have them do to you

"

A young girl was walking down the street
When she saw an old lady sprawled on the ground

Looking for something she had dropped
She happily passed the lady without a look

The lady was none of her concern
But just a couple minutes later

The poor old lady was mugged

Just when she had found what she was looking for

A boy snatched it and ran off
Afterward the old lady walked into a restaurant

She angrily threw herself down at a table
And she snapped at the poor waiter

Although the nice boy had done nothing wrong

Soon the waiter couldn't take it anymore

He began to get angry at those around him

It became so bad that his boss noticed

And he was swiftly fired and thrown out
The ex-waiter later ran into a teacher

Just coming home from work from work
Though he pushed her into the wall

He walked away without bothering to apologize
The dirtied teacher stomped to her car

Where she slammed the door and sped off
But just a couple blocks away

The teacher caused a car crash

Totaling both of the cars
The man the teacher had hit in the crash

Now had to go home by foot

After watching his precious car being taken
As he was walking angrily down the street

He bumped into a young girl

Throwing her heavily to the ground

Causing her to drop her bag
She scrambled to pick up her stuff

As people continuously kicked it all away
No one offered to help the young girl

She was forced to pick it all up herself
The girl then thought of the old lady

The one she had just seen that morning
The lady had needed help

 But the girl had ignored her and walked away
Now he same thing was happening to the girl
She began to wonder what would have happened

 If she had just helped the old lady that day
