A World Full Of Hunger Poem by Walterrean Salley

A World Full Of Hunger

Rating: 5.0


The world's full of hunger,
While some comfortably dine.
The eating of fair dainties.
And tasting of fine wine.

Someone's had no meat
To eat in quite a while.
Someone digs for morsels
From a lowly trash pile.

But, once out of ‘sight'
Is to be out of mind;
Simply deemed a tragedy
in the scheme of time.
