Walk a Mile
Highway exit
Unshaven, un-showered
His dog, trusting as so many never did
Turn a blind eye and move on
Night falls
Surely there is a shelter
Someone else who cares
Judgment is cruel, justification
Care, when others refuse
But for grace
Small acts change lives
Love is free
A kind word, if nothing else, costs nothing
Compassion in a world so cold
Be the one thing of value in someone's day
Save someone's life.
