CHILDREN ENJOYING SCHOOL IN RURAL KENYA ~ PLEASE SUPPORT
**************************************************************
CHRISTMAS always a time for giving
A time of joy a time of living
Every Girl and Boy ~ likes to get a TOY
Giving better than receiving !
I love to give a gift that's perfect
Something that the person will enjoy
When it's difficult to choose
I send a VOUCHER ~ so they can choose
A get out ? It's a PLOY
One answer to the PROBLEM ? SEND A COW !
Have you tried to wrap one ~ tell me how ?
That sounds really funny ~ but you just send the money
The people in the Third World tell you now !
So for all the under 20's in my extended Family
I will support a TEACHER for a Year
I havent sen her she lives in far off Kenya
But she has sent lots if pictures
Of the CHILDREN in her care !
SO DO IT NOW ~ SEND A COW
*****************************************************
HAVE YOU EVER DONE IT ~ CHILDREN LOVE THE IDEA ~ BRIAN
Kids like a lot of things,
boys like tracksuits and fruit shoots and girls likes to sing and mess around with a ring.
Like adventures Your rhymes are more false than dentures.
GIFT CARDS---For local food banks
***************************************
Gift cards now you can buy
In place of store credit, specifically
For the food banks, it goes locally
To make sure their shelves are stocked
Caring for others in times of need
As little as ten dollars or more
Reassures that bellies aren't hungry
Despite all the shopping for toys
Shower your needy citizens this holiday.
THANKS CHRISSY ~ GREAT POEM ~ GREAT SENTIMENT !
****************************************
USA the land of full and plenty
Seems a shame that some plates are empty
When you viisit the Southern States
You meet lots of folk with empty plates
How will they fare ~ when OBAMACARE
Is dumped and trumped no longer there ?
********************************
It's the same here in UK
You see the have-nots every day
Queuing up so cold and dank
For a hand out at our FOOD BANK
So when you buy your CHRISTMAS FARE
For poor and lonely give a care
Fill a basket with wholesome things
For the FOOD BANK ~give them wings
The average UK Family spend £900
On Christmas ~ just give 10% £90
That would be sound !
Most of us live in excess
The forgotten few live in a mess !

- Comment from author about the poem: A few years ago for part of their Christmas present ~ I sent the young people (under 20) in my Extended Family a share in a Cow for a poor Family in Africa. They loved it and the pictures I sent them with the card. I have done it ever since. It costs me about £200 (($270) and I divide it among about 10 recipients ~OK ~ Why not try it this yar there are lots of schemes in the UK and the USA ! I am sure TRUMP would approve if you sent an ELEPHANT ! Love & Hugs to ALL ~ BRIAN
