Paul White Poet Free verse

Have You Any Change

Have you any change please I'm hungry and need to eat

Have you any change please I'm homeless and live on
The street.

Have you any change please I'm not being rude.

Have you any change please it's not for drugs or drink
It's only for food.

Have you any change please I'm desperate can't you see

Have you any change please why are you ignoring me

Have you any change please if not I won't scream and
Shout.

You don't have any change then because to you I'm just
A down and out.

Jan Allison October 9, 2023 at 2:27 PM So sad to see there folk out on the street Paul. I have to be honest we dont see the homeless on the streets of our little island but there are folk who are sofa surfers and I have seen the homeless when we visit the UK:-( I guess there will be more and more left homeless with the current situation of rising prices, its a sad world:-( hugs jan xx
