A Poem About Insurance
It started the moment I came into this world
Loud, crying, kicking with nothing to my name
My stubby little fingers clenched and balled up
That hospital bill is certainly not anyone’s morning cup.
With more zeroes my mother could wrap her head around
A full Maternity Insurance was nowhere to be found
Perhaps she should have been wiser and read the fine print
“Does not cover newborns” was an obvious hint
Soon I was off to primary school all happy and skipping
When that day my father came home with news of a job he was no longer keeping
“They laid me off” he said with worry in his tired eyes
An existent Employees’ Benefits Insurance would have been nice
And so we had nothing to do but try and move along
So we drove to our favorite diner to leave behind a day that’s too long
But of course it had to happen to us if anyone’s keeping score
The car crashed into a hydrant, leaving us with whiplashed necks so sore
With my little brother in tow we rushed to the emergency room
Just to make sure all our parts were still in tune
I said under my breath “public healthcare is both a blessing and a curse”
We’ve been here for 3 hours I’ve made friends with a nurse
Good thing the damage were merely minor bruises
Sadly we had no Motor Insurance so the car no longer cruises
We took the bus home with spirits a little angry and broken
It’s a cliché to say but you really never know what could happen
On the computer, my father went straight
Typing away in a mad search to have some control over our fate
He was 32, unemployed with 2 kids and a busted car
He realized the truth that a good insurance plan can still get you far
Take this as a warning and a sad, truthful fact of life
Nobody likes thinking about insurance until you find out its might
It will save you in so many ways other than money
You get peace of mind and have a better chance of enjoying life’s journey.
