What Would I Change?


What would I change?

Such a simple question

With no simple answer.

 

If I were selfish,

I would change my body,

My face, my hair,

Make myself  runway ready.

 

If I were selfless,

I would change the world,

Ensure world peace,

End world hunger

If only it were so easy.

 

But one change anyone can make,

Is volunteering

Helping our own community

Such a small change

We can all make possible

By giving up a few hours 

Of our weekend to volunteer

 Can change a person or even a family's life.
