Never before have I seen such joy,
Joy in the midst of sorrow,
In the midst of pain,
Of poverty,
Parents... can give me life,
Teachers... will teach me curriculum,
College Professors... will teach me knowledge,
Medical School Professors... will provide me a mental tool,
In a distant land, from where I was raised
Where I grew up and where I had played.
I had never dreamed, that I would find
In a different place, a home from inside.
So many new faces! The handshake I know.
Imagine the Hunger
Imagine the hunger
Of a child so longing
For a pinch of pepper
Or a smidgen of salt
Imagine the hunger
Of a child so longing
For a hug from strong arms
Or a kiss of soft lips
