The Boy In the Deep Dark Woods

We don’t talk about the boy In the deep dark woods The one who’s without A home We don’t talk about the boy In the deep dark woods The villagers simply leave him Alone At night you can hear the boy In the deep dark woods Crying out, yearning for A home At night you can hear the boy In the deep dark woods Don’t be fooled, he’s never Alone Pray you don’t see the boy In the deep dark woods He might think you’re giving Them A Home Pray you don’t see the boy In the deep dark woods Or else you’ll never again be Alone ------------------- November 24th 2020

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
