He sat outside the party hall,
Ragged  poor and hungry,,
He had not eaten for two days,
Inside he could hear the rich music of clinking of spoons forks and glasses,
Whilst outside the strings of his heart whined for a morsel,
As he doubled with hunger,
A little girl dressed like a fairy stood before him,
She had a plate full of the most delicious food,
It's my birthday today uncle,
It will give me great joy if you will share my happiness with me,
As she handed out the plate to him,
And don't forget to bless me.

Very rich and busy parents asked their son,
"You have every luxury here,,
Best food,
People at your beck and call,
Why do you prefer your middle class friend's home more than ours.
Ours is a cold empty house,
Theirs is a small warm home,
Full of loving people with time for each other,
Here I feel I am with strangers ,
With my own who I rarely see or talk,
There I am with a family
Where hugs , kisses and laughter comes naturally,
Though not rich,
Little by little they have built their home,
With a mother's love and a father's care,
There I feel I belong.

On ma's hair,
Dad's going to come home early,
And in good mood
We will get money to see a movie.

Is my wake-up call,
Of what I should do and not do,
At present,
And in rhe future.

Meal,
Is when mum feeds you lovingly,
With her own hands.

What did the kidney say to the bladder,
Ur-ine my thoughts,
Sending you the flow soon.
The bladder grunted,
You kid-ney me,
I'm already half full.
