[hometext] => Inspired by Deadheadpoet, yangdantien and Shelby this is my contribution to call attention to plight of the homeless
[bodytext] => Ever passing by, looking away Maybe for a moment we should stay To hear the tale of how this came to be And then just maybe we would see We are not different from those in need And most likely they could use a good deed To help them move up a step to two Would you not want that done for you? The sun and rain is for them also For their delight the stars put on a show Flowers spring up in cracks of sidewalks To them the birds sing and talk Nature knows they are worth much more And they don’t walk past looking sore For some of these people just need a smile So they can walk that extra mile Many did not choose their plight A young mother doing what was right To remove her children from abusive home Now on the streets she has to roam Or the teen that was raped by family Should we just let her be? Or help take a stand and change her life Taking away the pain and daily strife A veteran of an unwanted war Mentally left with a deep scar Every loud noise brings back trauma Can you help to ease his drama? Each face a story tells Past pains some dwell Each special in God’s eyes Their worth can we deny?

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
