The Homeless

I watch as you sit alone- dejected many chose not to see you, nor to look upon your tear stained face. We do not know your story-lest we judge or from where you came-it matters not although you are a stranger to me-seeking shelter from the rain. I could help to ease your suffering- show a friendly face, or I like so many could walk on by, but I think- 'there by the grace of God go I'

Hello Juile Achilles, the homeless do suffer this time of year. There should be more shelters for them to keep warm. Also food to fill their stomachs. have a nice day my friend.
