Make Ends Meet

Thirty thousand shillings, a Kenyan's plight,
To stretch and divide, with all one's might.
Rent's hungry maw, a constant plea,
For shelter's warmth and family.

Food's tender mercies, a daily quest,
To nourish bodies, put them to rest.
Transport's demands, a journey each day,
To reach the workplace, come what may.

Debts like shadows, looming and near,
A constant reminder, a haunting fear.
Tithe and charity, a heart's desire,
To share with others, and reach higher. 

A delicate balance, a careful art,
To make ends meet, right from the start.
With wisdom and prudence, a path to tread,
Towards financial freedom, and daily bread.
