Poem: 3

Observing the Ragamuffin

Brown paper packages lose their charm
When lost, hopeless faces
Stretch out an arm

They all shine bright
This Christmas-the lights
But the cold mornings, they leave a tragic sight

Of shivering infants
And giving up of hope
The cheer it seems is only for the affluent

Author's Note:
Merry Christmas everyone. I was thinking about the effects of poverty during festivals so, I tried to dabble in that sphere today.
