Leah, so good to see you have a page here... I hadn't realized. I slip in and out of AD, but will make a point to visit you. I see you share the compassion I so admire in Allen's poems. Great descriptive detail here. Thanks! Dawn
Leah thanks for sharing this poem. Excellent work and beautiful
example of how we can help even when we think we can't. So many
people say,"the least we can do is pray' However, that is the best we can do, not the least, when it's done with a believing heart!
Very interesting and nicely written. I wonder why you projected evil an devils onto him, though. It could be he's sick, and with all the cuts to social services can't get the help he needs - in which case he's the innocent and his mother's heart would break for another reason.
Inspiring, I saw a guy panhandling on street corner the other day and even though he was being ignored by evryone I called him over and gave him $2 in change it was like magic all of a sudden windows started opening and people all started giving him change even held up the light to do it. GOd truly does work in mysterious ways Leah.
Nice write.
