Homelessness Poems

Poems by: Kenny C

A dark earthquake hitsWrecking homes people live in

Leaving them homeless

A young runaway childLeaving to improve their lifeEnding up homeless

Bad drugs and alcoholMaking them homeless and sadNo job accepting them

Bad drugs and alcoholMaking him homeless and sadNo job accepting him

HopelessLonely, Depressed,

Robbing, Begging, Needing,Cheerless, Unwanted, Homeless, Content,

Loving, Having, Receiving, Delightful, High Spirited,

Hopeful
