[hometext] => Another piece I wrote after our 4 week stay in San Diego.....long enough to see way too much sadness. This is for the homeless...the lost and alone.
[bodytext] =>
Sad man
Unshaven
Unkempt
Ambling along
Holding your sign
They call you
Beggar
Bum
Wino
Drunk
I simply call you...
a brother
Lost
You need attention
You need love
Stolen by lost dreams
That forever go untold
Cold cruel world
What reasons do we walk
on such tortured ground...
unnoticed
Alone
Written after my encounter with numerous homeless persons whilst in
San Diego, California.
California is going through a cold snap right now....bless those who have no warmth or shelter. My heart is crying.

Your heart strikes a chord that is distinctly strum in mine. I actually feel inspired this Happy Saturday.
There are so many who seek to survive and live in whatever regards their abilities flow. Your piece invokes a resistance within me.
A will of debate unfurls and I realize much in this, partly due to points of view in flux.
Excellent , Thank You
Peace

Thank you for not leaving these eyes unmet... |

Nicely written. Compassion for the homeless is needed for we that have will never know the true meaning of why they chose to be alone. Lost and without a home so many here,there and everywhere. Thank goodness for folks that assit where they can to provide aide and comfort unconditionally.

Oh sweetie...sometimes I believe that your heart is somehow bigger than the world...
This is terrible in it's simplicity. You do not need any more than what you have written for it to strike a nerve...
A good write hun, incredibly powerful, and important.
Much love,
Phil xxx |
