Homeless

HOMELESS

He lives on the street
Has no shoes on his feet
His life is no good
As he most days sleep without any food
He daily searches for wood
To make fire because it calms his mood
Fire makes him warm
It makes him feel at home
Lord have mercy
The neighbours have no mercy
I pray, hear my voice
I want this boy to rejoice
Give him a chance to shine
Just like everyone else, let him be fine
He is job less
He is HOMELESS.

A heartbreaking poem, about this person, but you show such care and it was written well. Prayers are needed, yes.

For prayer is a powerful weapon, We therefore have to call upon, God, Our Lord. Thank you so much Heidi.
