What Your Souls About Poem by T.James Becker

What your souls about

Proverbs 22: 9
A generous man will himself be blessed, for he shares his food with the poor.
*****************************************

Huddled in a cardboard box shivering from the cold
Not a glance do you give, just pull your jacket closed
Pretend you didn’t notice them maybe they’ll go away
Constantly complaining how they ruined your day

How did this all come about the callousness you feel
While the Hunger and the cold to them is very real
Do you try to lend a hand or go merrily on your way?
Maybe they give conversation to occupy your day

This writings not about the poor or the down and out
But about a helping hand and what your souls about
If each one helps just one child or a family in need
God will bless your house and in His grace you’ll be
