Complaining Poem by Audrey Heller

What does it take to make you happy?
Do you really think, you need a lot? If
you just look around you, you'll see how
much, you've got! We all do our share
of complaining, we're never satisfied,
wishing we had more. Isn't it a shame
we feel that way, when there are so
many, that are very poor! We should
be grateful for all the things we have,
not take it in our stride. Think of all
the unfortunate ones, that have nowhere
to reside. It's sad to see these people,
walking around in the street. They have
very little to their name and just as little
to eat. We must realize we're very
fortunate, we have all the comforts we
need. For goodness sake, let's stop
complaining. It only shows, our greed!
