Poet farmer from Jordan



The losers, the winners
The saints and the sinners,
We all know these kind of folks.

The movers, the shakers,
The givers and takers,
The clowns and tellers of jokes.

The poet, the preacher,
The student and teacher,
Politicians in front of a crowd.

The ones who are mental,
The ones who are gentle,
And some are obnoxious and loud.

The writer, the fighter,
The stay-out-all-nighter,


The greedy, the evil, the blind.

I've seen the whole range,
Including the strange,
And learned that it takes every kind

To make this ol' world.
