The Winning Ticket<\/p>\n
I am tired and hungry, my mother looks at me with tears<\/p>\n
She cries trying to be strong yet she is filled with fear<\/p>\n
She has been working two jobs trying to make it okay<\/p>\n
She feels as though we are drowning in debt everyday<\/p>\n
Debt , fear , scared and tears ; she wonders if we will be okay<\/p>\n
She wants to give up with no hope for the next day<\/p>\n
No hope that things will change for the better<\/p>\n
No hope until she recieved a special letter<\/p>\n
She recieved a letter with a winning ticket<\/p>\n
She thought she would not make it just probably kick it<\/p>\n
This ticket filled with hope and sunshine for days to come<\/p>\n
Hope and smiles with appreciation from my mum<\/p>\n
She has made it to a place where we would be safe again<\/p>\n
All from the winning ticket from a very dear friend<\/p>\n
They won some money and knew how hard she does try<\/p>\n
Wanted her to know good of the world before anyone dies<\/p>\n
As she has got her chance to make things new<\/p>\n
She thanked God above for the trials she went through<\/p>\n
Promised to do good with this money forever more<\/p>\n
For the first time she was free like never before.<\/p>\n
