About This Quote

This is a poem about a girl who was so depressed because she could not afford to eat. The boy she was with was so overwhelmed by her distress, he said she was better than seven years of food, better than windows and even better than the sky. As a result, she was so grateful that she started eating again and stopped being depressed.
