Meaningful Writings

The homeless gather in the city park

to exchange the latest news:

where’s the best free lunch in town,

who’s giving away some shoes.

Children play a game of tag

to hide their hunger and their fears.

While a gang of surly teens

give a stranger angry stares.

They think it disrespectful

that he not avert his eyes.

But he is wondering whom he might know;

How long before he has no home.
