T.A. Skyles-Theoklapoet Poet I do not know?

Strangers On the Streets

We were asked to go and do a good deed.
The people we met were in dire need.
Three kids that were there we had to feed.
So give to the needy and have no greed.

They had no job there was no money.
Nights were cold so glad that days are sunny.
Life was so hard and there was nothing funny.
But their life now was as sweet as honey.

We got them a job now lifes so sweet.
They pay their rent and buy food to eat.
The kids now have shoes on their feet.
Good deeds for a stranger on the street.
                      Teresa Skyles
