A Lesson to Learn!

SHOULD YOU FIND IT HARD TO SLEEP TONIGHT  

Should you find it hard to sleep tonight,  
Think of those with no bed in sight.  
Remember the family without a place,  
Finding shelter in a homeless space.  

Should you find yourself stuck in traffic’s snare,  
Think of those who don’t drive anywhere.  
To many, cars are a privilege unknown,  
With dreams of journeys they’ve never flown.

Should you have a rough day at your work,  
Think of those who are waiting for a spark. 
For months they’ve searched without success,  
Yet their spirits refuse to regress.

Should you despair over a love’s lost song,  
Think of those who’ve never belonged.  
Who’ve never felt love’s warm embrace,  
Or shared in its tender, sweet grace.

In every struggle, a lesson to learn,  
A deeper compassion to discern.  
Count your blessings, however small, 
And find the strength to rise above it all.
