Good luck. Here's the poem
MY SOJOURN
I opened my eyes, everyone was joyous
I started crying to protest this new sojourn
No one even paid a heed that I was forlorn
Their only care, there was a newbie in the world.
Slowly I realized that I was lonely
That I was in a crowd that wasn't so loving
That everyday they keep wishing and craving
But none was ready to do the granting and giving
Then I met with others that were lonely
I decided I would be quite loving
Everyday I would also keep wishing and craving
But I was also ready to do the granting and giving
Slowly they would realize they all are lonely
Gradually they would all learn to be loving
That even while they do the wishing and craving
They should also do the granting and giving
Then I would close my eyes and be joyous
And forget the days that I was forlorn
I will be happy with my unplanned sojourn
And I will know there's a legacy for the unborn
