By Katie DeCubellis<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I open my eyes and begin to see,
All of the horrors there happen to be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The children on the street begging for food,
What a horrible life, so terribly crude.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The young and the old lying in gutters,
When they ask for food, people reply with mutters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Searching the garbage for food to eat,
Maybe some clothing or shoes for their feet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The sick and the sad trying to find,
Someone to help them, someone who\u2019s kind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So next time you hear their cries and their yelps,
Try to be kind, try to help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I am a friendly girl whose name is Katie
I wonder how old I will live to be
I hear people, animals, and many sounds
I see the things that are around
I want to be the best I can be
I am a friendly girl whose name is Katie<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I pretend that it\u2019s sunny when there is rain
I feel other people\u2019s pain
I touch the hearts of many I meet
I worry in someway that I may be beat
I cry when people are mean to me
I am a friendly girl whose name is Katie<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I understand that I should be kind
I say the things that are on my mind
I dream that I will do most things right
I try my best with my brother not to fight
I hope the world I\u2019ll be able to see
I am a friendly girl whose name is Katie<\/p>\n\n\n\n
