STREET CHILDREN

Sad,angry,determined,cold and helpless,
young,malnourished,stressed and hopeless,
rugged,dirty and maybe homeless?
some abusive,drugged and heartless..
who can they possibly be,
this who beg you and me?
it may be a she or a he,
can we do something or let them be?
I often wonder of their stories,
of what drives them to the streets,
of those so young but with no trust,
of lost innocence and forgotten love,
of hardened hearts and hopeless tomorrows
of POVERTY,the highest contributing factor to street children.
What can I do,what can you do?
For this children who crave love,attention
and acceptance?
What can I do?
