Caren Krutsinger Poet Free verse

I Need To Reach That Phone

I need to reach that phone box pleaded a girl at the station.
Many adults walked around her, but no one offered help.
Along came a little boy, a rascal, a neighbor, not a friend, a whelp.
He immediately became her stepstool without a second’s hesitation.

Valsa George December 30, 2022 at 8:17 PM Those who might seem quite insignificant and loathsome turn out to be so helpful and considerate. So we have no right to judge anybody! Caren Krutsinger December 30, 2022 at 11:03 PM We surely do not.
