Our Earth
Reyna Milene Martinez 1985 (Acapulco)
Its overwhelming to see, how many people around the world are suffering.
Its not easy to live daily life struggling.
I must admit, sometimes I've taken things for granted, when indeed they are a blessing.
Essential needs are not easy to come by, around the globe.
Picture a baby without formula, crying endlessly.
A mother trying to make ends meet, but, no one is there.
Is there anyone left who truly cares?
Be the change you want to see in the world.
There's a lot of pain and sorrow.
The time to act is now, not later, or tomorrow.
