HOPE
 
We can't ignore the sadness
In little children's eyes,
The hunger in their hearts
And minds.

The lost abandoned little ones
Roaming streets, afraid.
Forsaken and lonely,
Eating garbage finds.

Lord these little ones need shelter.
Nourishment for their bodies
And their souls.

Hope is the mother of joy.
Joy will only come when we reach out,
And make them whole.
