I could of ......

I could of feed my baby

I could of sent her to a good school

I could of avoid abortion

I could of take care of grandma

I could of prevent my grandma from dying  

I could of paid her hospital's bills

I could of eat real food instead of dirt cookies

I could of sleep on a comfortable bed 

I could of have a healthy body

I could of stop crying of pain and starvation

If only I had the money.....

Author's note: Hey ! how are you doing today? I hope all is well. After reading this poem and all other next poems of this book I would hope that I motivate you to help someone in some kind of way today. "Being grateful is happiness!"  So be grateful for what you have joy, peace of mind, love, kindness, money, food one the table, lots of clothe, running water at the house, or simply being alive) , so go out there help a friend, family,homeless etc!

A saddening poem about poverty. Expressed swell and appealingly. Money is hard to get for many the world over. The rich don't give in charity as God asked them to. Thumbs up.
