Achievement Centers for Children’s Poet Laureate, Ella Hanley, has been thinking about the inequities of poverty and has written a piece for you to consider:
Does Not Matter When You Are Rich
by Ella Hanley
Let’s help the poor knowing it will help them feel better
Let’s be kind to them so they know we care
Now they will feel safer with us by their side
Does not matter when you are rich
Take a look at the poor what do you see?
We can be friends
We can help each other
We can be good helpers
Let’s help the poor knowing it will help them feel better
Let’s be kind to them so they know we care
Now they will feel safe with us by their side
Does not matter when you are rich
Take a look at the poor, what do you see?
