Did you see that little child?In a corner, still, as everyone passes him by
Orphaned by time, abandoned to fate
If he stretches his shriveled hand
And his sunken eyes meet your hasty gaze
As you pass by, will you hopefully smile
Stranger you are, but stranger is kindness
To this poor soul, you are a saviour
When his bones turn to dust
And his breath returns to whence it came
Let his thoughts remain on that one kind act
And with a smile may that child let go
As you see yourself in a mirror
Seeing that it was probably you
And then you die a thousand deaths
Wondering, why didnt every stranger
Stop as you had and then you realize
Stranger you were, but Stranger is kindness.

What should I say pal, read most of it and loved every word I read. Though can't claim to be knowledgabe enough, but to me you write pretty well , and it seems that emotions ooze out so naturally in your writing. If you already haven't tried ... go to fanstory.com ... your contribution can be significant and reviews assured. Best of luck man ...
Though I am highly inconspicuous by nature... you may just vaguely remember someone u addressed as 'saxy' in your good old TAPMI days
