Granted twenty four hours of health
How have you used it differently
From he who was bedridden?
Granted two eyes to see
What have you seen
That a blind man would envy?
Granted food to give you energy
What have you done with the energy
That makes a difference to one who had none?
Granted shelter and clothing
What’s it with self-loathing
Wanting what your neighbor has?
Granted a computer to study
What’s the difference between you
And those who have none?
Granted the feet to walk
Where have you been on this earth
To show a little bit of compassion?
Granted parents who have stuck with you
Through their own inadequacies and troubles
What do have to show them at the end of the day?
Granted books and the ability to read
Granted the time and the brains
What is the difference between you
And those who can’t read?
Granted people who care about you
What would you give them
When you walk like they don’t exist?
