A little tiny two dollar
To help cover ten toes
from an Afghan child
with sensible shoes.
Shoes that doesn’t need
a particular style
or need to come in
a particular colour.
Shoes that are tailored
With a purpose in mind
Shoes that bring comfort
during the winter months.
Shoes the ease the feet
when walking great
immense distances.
Shoes that sets
an Afghan child
on the beginnings
of the journey
through Life.

Been a while since I stopped by, and this one sounded great, and you know what? It is! With a wonderful message! I wish everyone could have the insight that you do! It would be great if we all could help out. I am not sure why this is not in a contest, it is great!!
