Don't Cry Little Boy

Don't cry little boy some day you will be able to have all the toys in the world. Little boy try to understand when mom tells you no I can't afford it. Little boy standing on the corner selling candy and flowers to help feed their families. I know your life is hard with the seed of hunger in your eyes. People walking by hurrying on their way to their nice warm homes before the snow falls. I wonder if one time do they ever do more for you or families like yours other than talk. Sometimes  we get so use to living in our comfortable homes that a little boy like you hurts because you remind us our world is not perfect. He is a symbol of all the bad and sad things that life has to offer. People of USA wake up this little boy may be in their country now,but  I see little ones in our country going without shoes on their feet and clothes on their backs and some going without food on their tables.A baby crying into the night without a light to shine or heat to keep it warm. Don't cry little boy tomorrow will come and behind the close doors maybe someone will listen.  Do you see the homeless becoming more everyday? All that was good and right in their world gone. All is right in your world today, hey who's to say that  tomorrow we might be joining the unique crowd and become the little baby boy without any toys. Written by Judith Collins
