People starving people dying,
Left helpless and crying,
The world only sighing,
Without much efforts or trying!
Every corner a poor man dwelt,
Only pain, worries and troubles dealt,
Still lingering hunger they felt,
Their life is not of roosevelt!
Children crying for piece of bread,
World needs to stop crisis spread,
Before poverty gets on every head,
Giving malnutrition a reason to dead!
Malnutrition not a sickness at bay,
We can only help and pray,
As it’s here long to stay,
Making humans fall it’s prey!
Million lives subjected to danger,
Heart filled with painful anger,
We can be situation changer,
Doesn’t matter for known or stranger!
This time things look crucial,
Instead being spend thrift social,
We can help someone actual,
Making them feel importantly special!
Stopping this sufferance again and again,
We can make kind humanity regain,
No one deserves such horrible pain,
Let’s not keep hearts in chain!
Time to care for each other,
Be it someone’s brother or mother,
We’re here for one another,
It’s high time to stand together!

When I read your poem, I immediately thought of the lyrics from the song called “Where is the love?” By the Black Eyed Peas. I had to analyze this song for a civics class back in high school.
