The Time Around The World Poem by Jessica Goudreault

What time is it around the world?
It is not just yours and yours alone

For while you are reading this,
Somebody just had their first kiss

Millions of different things happen in an instant,
Wether someone hit a homerun
Or just got into a car accident

Somebody is taking their last breath
As a baby is born

They laugh and sigh,
Cry and mourn

People are in a fight
Over who is wrong and who is right
As a man proposes to the love of his life

A person has been shot, running away from a cop,
A women just discovered she will be a mother,
As someone found their first lover

We do not know who these people are,
Some live close to you and some live far,
These people make up the actions of the world
Just as you do, everyday
With the little things you do and say.
