Ode to a Stranger
A stranger I did meet,
Our world joined at my feet.
Gifts he brought to bear,
Although I did not care.
He did not ask for pay
Not on that dreary day
Pass it on he said,
Help someone instead.
His kindness touched my heart,
I placed the food in my cart.
A blanket went in as well,
Although I knew I’d sell.
You can work for me,
I understand you see.
I was once like you,
Not knowing what to do.
A hand reached out to help,
I could only yelp.
He pointed to the church,
I rose, my feet did lurch.
My soul fluttered in my chest,
This man spoke not in jest.
He left me there on the street,
To think how chance did meet.
A perfect gesture divine,
Hope fluttered free, fine.
Now I sing his praise,
Each time a life I raise.
A moment etched in time,
Despite stench and grime.
This stranger I did meet,
He brought salvation to my feet.
He gave my life back to me,
I love him so you see.
In awe I can relate,
An ode which changed my fate.
This is so joke able types. that's nice to me.
love this poem so I say
So beautifully written ❤️
