The Gift


All I want
You cannot buy
A shared love for the open sky
Gentle hands to hold in mine
stay with me till the end of time
Laughter that melts my pain
Barefoot walks in the rain
A touch to my skin
lights fires within
See me in your heart
Think of me when were apart
Let me be who I am
never dull or never dim
Take what you need
And give it back
Tread lightly where my hearts concered
It is always giving
But must be Earned
Never feel alone when I am near
Walk together through the fear
I need no rings
or fancy things
All I need
You cannot buy

Old Bum

by

Clive Michie

Old man
Cold and hungry
Grasping warm coffee
Scowling at passers by

His face is made of leather
His fingers stiff and twisted
His clothes are filthy rags
His age no one can tell

He guards his bags of bottles
He guards his cardboard box
He lost his medication
He can’t afford the pills

He staggers to the liquor store
And buys up what he can
This will keep him going
Puts all the past behind

How did he get here?
How will he escape?
What caused this in his life?
What really makes him tick?

A passer by takes notice
He perks his ears to hear
The old bum looks to the sky
Then bows his head to say

Merry Christmas baby Jesus
