In the midst of a world
filled with a gamut of misery
a man sleeps on the street
a victim of an evil history
Once filled with chuckles
and a heart of gold
enjoying all of life
till suddenly the world turned cold
In an instant
he lost all in a quick sweep
ignoring the truth
making many weep
On this very night
sleeping in the cold
a prophecy will come true
from the days of old
Rising out of the ashes
a group of people appear
with kindness and hope
love became clear
New days dawned
victory against evil
the light shines now
as life returns to all the people

A well written poem 🙂
Thank you. Have a wonderful day!
Your poem about throwing out a lifeline is profound. The recipient did not allow it to hit the ground. On this day, hope was not lost.
Thank you. There are a several homeless people on the streets in the downtown areas. Several charitable organizations have formed a safety net for the homeless that include food, shelter, and health care for those who would like it. Still, it remains an issue that is lifelong for some. Thanks for reading. Have a wonderful day!
Very uplifting for those beset by what appears to be misery with no end in sight.
