Compared To Many Others
Do we ever really stop and think
Of how good a life we have
Compared to many others
It's really not that bad
We go to work and say things
Like how much we hate our jobs
Complain about the hours we work
Or the time we must get up
There are many others out there
Who begin a search each day
To try to find a job like ours
That comes with decent pay
Insurance is a big thing
We take for granted till there's a need
While those without a job at all
A doctor they wont see
We eat our dinners every night
Pay our bills and go to sleep
No worries for the ones outside
Who are living in the streets
So today I will just stop and think
Of this good life that I have
Compared to many others
Its really not that bad

This was written on a challenge I gave to Mike, on how we see a typical day. I have already made my concession call as Mike has already posted his master poem to stop any future challenges that other poets may have...LOL. Yep I may not have won this battle but I have just inlisted all other poets to challenge you Mike..lol. I will win the war and wear you down my friend and one day I will take the crown..This is my master plan.. crap.....I have given my master plan away. crap.
