Beggar. Poem by jade Ni.

sometimes we forget the real victims of this world.

Please sir,
I'm hungry sir,
I have no food to eat.
My parents are both dead sir,
I've no shoes on my feet.
I sleep in doorways for the night
I have no bed like you,
sometimes it's really cold sir,
is there something you can do?
They say I cannot work sir,
I'm too young, so it seems,
so I have to beg to live sir,
as I have no other means.
So if you have spare coins sir,
or even food to give,
I'd thank you very kindly,
for helping me to live.
