Hunger Pains
By Baxter Bailey
In a world of plenty, where dreams should take flight, There's a tale of innocence, a sorrowful sight, Little ones with hungry eyes, searching for a meal, Their tiny hearts cry out, hoping someone will heal.
In the city streets and rural lands, Their empty stomachs, no helping hands, But we can't turn away, we must take a stand, For the children going hungry, we'll extend a hand.
Oh, the children going hungry, Their cries echo through the night, In our hearts, a fire's burning, To end their pain, we have to shine a guiding light.
Through shattered windows, they gaze upon a world, Where abundance surrounds them, yet their cries go unheard, Their laughter fades to silence, as hunger takes its toll, In their innocent eyes, we see a story untold.
No child should bear the weight of hunger's cruel sting, Together we must rise, and let compassion sing, For in our unity lies the strength to make a change, To ensure no child goes hungry we can rearrange.
Oh, the children going hungry, Their cries echo through the night, In our hearts, a fire's burning, To end their pain, we have to shine a guiding light.
Let's bridge the gap, erase this tragic divide, Extend a helping hand, reach out far and wide, Through kindness and compassion, let's mend this broken chain, So that no child goes to bed in hunger and pain.
In the depths of poverty, their hopes reside, With open hearts, let's stand by their side, For the children going hungry, let love be their guide, Together we can bring a brighter tomorrow, worldwide.
Oh, the poor children going hungry, Their cries echo through the night, In our hearts, a fire's burning, To end their pain, we will shine a guiding light.
Let our voices rise, a chorus of compassion strong, A symphony of change, where no child will long, For a meal to fill their bellies, to silence hunger's plea, In a world of abundance, let love set them free.
