Let me say nette that you come up with very motivating literary pictures and forms. This is the mark of a good teacher, knowing how to get people to write. There were a million different stories that could go along with that picture. Thanks for the challenge. Blessings, Janis.

A very touching poem, Janis. My heart goes out to the homeless. This heart wrenching poem brought tears to my soul, but this is nevertheless a beautiful poem. Love and more love to you and yours.

Freddie, I always deeply appreciate your comments. You know the homeless have been with us for many years. They seemed to go away for a while and now there are probably more than in the Depression of the 30's. Thanks and blessings, Janis.
