Spare Change, Please
Pleading eyes
Watching others walk on by
Wondering will anyone give
In order for them to live
Money lands
In their outstretched hand
The person looks up and sees
A face lit up with glee
They exchange a smile
And they talk for awhile.
Once they say, "Goodbye"
The person begins to cry
The person in tears
Realizes that the giver erase their fears.
With the money provided
The person buys food to survive
Filled with gratitude
Does the giver understand the magnitude
And the impact
Of their kind act?
The giver's gift
Is hope that uplifts
The person in need
Who only wanted a good deed.
Now believes
That anyone can receive
Service, a form of
Everlasting love.
