Come In From The Cold

And he shivered from the cold As his protectors just watched on I sat and waited patiently For them to make his chills all gone But they were warm and cosy On a day so unlike spring Where cold the wind blew through Did they not care for him
I tried to turn my eyes away Thought to tend my own affairs But my mind just kept him with me It was more than I could bare I turned to see his little face And as I caught his discomfort,I could see That I didn't need my jacket Not near as much as he
So I beckoned to this little boy His steps took him quite a while But when I draped my jacket 'round him He was quick to give a smile All snuggled in his new found warmth His mouth gave way to words And the way he sweetly thanked me Was a delight for me to have heard
I lost a darn good jacket Once before when on a train I gave one once,I gave one twice If need be,I'll give again It wasn't really lost It just found a new ride And not a million gorgeous jackets Could top the feeling left inside
My only sadness of the day Was to leave him in the selfish hold Of the ones who should have warmed him And brought him in from the cold That little boy stayed with me In my mind,and even now I shed a tear or two When I sit and wonder how
How can the ones they look to For love and its protection See the sadness and the pain Yet turn with full rejection This little boy,this little man Worth his weight in gold Only wanted some protection To be brought in from the cold
