The Have Nots

They don't have much as that much is clear Just the knowing of such can bring a tear Those sad looking eyes only filled with neglect Those constant cries as I sit here and reflect There clothes so worn and shoes with holes Facing society's scorn these poor tattered souls Each day being a fight in just trying to survive Only there God given might is keeping them alive Yet now I see it even more being so prevalent today There is so much war and we all really need to pray Not just for yourself for you are doing relatively fine You have your health and it's regularly that you dine Look at those who have not, who suffer every day Then look what you got, a pretty comfortable stay Just a reminder to all who will read what I write Begin to listen for His Call and soon you'll see His Light Billy Gilman "One Voice"
