If Every Man

If every man had everything
What would people do
We wouldn't have jobs
Or go on trips
Or stop to see
Animals at the zoo
We wouldn't go
To Toys r Us
For what would be the use
For if every man had everything
There wouldn't be anything to do

Hope,
Alicia A. Renzelman

Wonderful

I love children's poetry. Didn't someone say you can't have everything, where would you put it?

May your roof never fall in and those beneath it never fall out.

For being written in 7th grade, it sure does have a ring of wisdom about it..

MAY THE ROAD RISE TO MEET YOU,
MAY THE WIND BE ALWAYS AT YOUR BACK
MAY THE SUN SHINE UPON YOUR FACE
THE RAINS FALL SOFT UPON YOUR FIELDS
AND, UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN,
MAY GOD HOLD YOU IN THE PALM OF HIS HAND
