Homeless!

By Abi Edwards age 13

Its dark and wet,

no chance of a flat yet,

sleeping on the hard cold floor,

missing a bed more and more.

While your bed is made of exotic hardwood,

mine is made of Tesco cardboard.

So the next time you spend £300 on a pair of

DOLCE AND GABBANA Jeans,

Im on the streets eating cold baked beans.

Watching the sun fade into night,

hoping that an angry man wont pick me for a fight.

The biggest crime is to be greedy,

so spare a thought for the needy,

and if your guilt is now more,

put your hand in your pocket and help feed the poor.

Sleeping in someones doorway,

hoping the cold will go away.

Struggling to sleep, ive got frostbite

holding on to my sleeping bag so so tight.

So this christmas time,

when your tables full of everything,

spare a thought, donate money to The Wellspring.
