The Stock Market Crash

 

It was 1929,
I had no home,
No money.

A sad time. It was a very sad time.
I had no food,
No money.

A hard time. It was a very hard time.
I had no job,
No money.

My kids were sick, very sick.
They had no toys,
No doctor.

My wife was dying,
No one to cheer her up,
No doctor.
