This is my slam about food and hunger
Which causes such a great disaster

So many children in the world are starving
While in them rich countries, people on wasting

Wasting food, so many of them could take
With a grateful heart and a smile not so fake

8.3 million tones of food gone in thin air
What a loss since children keep dying each year

This is my plea, can anyone hear me?
Children have the right to be free and healthy!

A child in the night cries
She ain’t got no-one to care for her
And her flimsy future lies
Ahead so misty and unsure

To say that hunger will, eventually disappear
Is something that we all, really wanna hear

And there’s only one way, we can make this come true
We gotta show love, ‘cause there’s a lot that it can do

Think about that little child, craving to eat
With just this thought, we could make him complete

Think about that girl, crying her heart out
With hollow eyes, and an ever-lasting pout

With just a thought, we could make a difference
We could put a smile on a child without defence

Yeah think about all those dazzling smiles
That would make our world sparkle
If we could make hunger run miles
And let them children swim, in a joy so ample

Because I know that with just a thought,
You and I we could do alot
  








For in everything it is no easy task to find the middle ... anyone can get angry—that is easy—or give or spend money; but to do this to the right person, to the right extent, at the right time, with the right motive, and in the right way, that is not for everyone, nor is it easy; wherefore goodness is both rare and laudable and noble.
— Aristotle
