WHY


(poems go here)

“WHY”

By Daniel E. Walker

Why does a little boy with hopes and dreams feel so alone?

And, when that little boy needs motherly guidance in his life, he finds she is not there.

That little boy thinks it’s not fair that his mother is gone and doesn’t care.

No remorse, no telephone calls or even a simple letter asking how are you and how’s life treating you. The little boy is hurting inside.

But it’s NOT OK!

Forced into independence, people see a mix of greatness, disguise and guilt; the little boy only sees complexities of life far too early

This young brother is wondering how he is ever going to make it in this life; .

But he’s figured out “WHY” it’s good to be a living example.

 His life has changed because he has a loving family and friends now that care greatly for him and  that he cares about.

That’s

“WHY”
