Help Wanted

by Tiffany   Sep 16, 2006


A familiar sign you have seen
And sometimes eagar to find
But how about those HELP WANTED signs you don't want to see or look for...
The HELP WANTED signs on peoples' front doors

Abused children, battered wives; looking for better lives
People old, crippled, can't walk, and those who can't talk

Children living in single parent homes, roaming the streets at night
Kids in school who can't read or write

Babies born to parents hooked on
booze or []rugs
Kids without homes to go to for good night hugs

Children living with families hooked on []rack
Their parents without money to feel a grocery sack

As you see there are a lot of HELP WANTED signs on any given day, a lot of rewards, but little pay.

Give a hand see what you can do,
but always remember:
"Do unto others as you would want them do unto you."
