By Far Too Many Poem by Francis Duggan

Too many with too much in the World of today
And too many doing it tough it does seem this way
And too many very wealthy who only think of their own need
In this Human World where there is by far too much greed
And too many homeless people and stateless refugees
The victims of war malnutrition and untreated disease
You may say to this tell us something that's new
When i say that the compassionate, kind and caring are too few
In a World where the gap between the haves and the have nots keeps growing ever wide
And by far too many of a fair go are denied
By far too many people are doing it too tough
Without food and shelter living and sleeping rough
And far too many like the greedy billionaire
Who with the poor and downtrodden are never known for to share.
