Homeless Guy

Your knocking on my window pane
I know that it is you
Peering in with desperate eyes
You need a Bob or two

I let you in, your grateful
As it's so cold outside
Your homeless and your hungry
You like your eggs done fried

A cuppa tea is Gold dust
I can't offer you much more
My meetings with the homeless
Are happening at my door

"Can I stay the night" you cry
You know I have no room
So off into the night you roam
Shouting "Don't worry I will be back soon."
