Has To Be You Poem by Francis Duggan

You may feel that life on you is rather tough
But when compared to many you know it easy enough
A nice home to live in and you have never known of a hungry day
That life is not tough on you does seem true to say
The Homeless and Stateless are to be found everywhere
There are millions of people living in dire poverty in the big World out there
In the refugee camps of the World there are millions of refugees
Even poverty does come at varying degrees
And you who have never known of hardship or experienced hunger pain
Of how tough life on you is like to complain
Though you look physically healthy and always dress in good clothes
There is poverty of mind too one has to suppose
You have never been hungry or homeless but in your mind it is true
That the poorest person in the town has to be you.
