Salary

By Rosita Madrid Sanchez

I have been counting days since day one

I thinking, what should I buy?

Nice clothes, shoes, what else?

I’m so excited…

Time flies, the end of the months arrives

The day I am waiting for, has come.

Where is the list?

I didn’t put new shoes and clothes…

What can I do? My family is way back home…

Waiting for this money to help them and support their study

OK then… nothing for me this months

Maybe next month or next time…

My hard earned money…. all fly away in the wind

with only a penny left in MY hand

Bye salary see you next month.

But at least they are happy….
