The Lonely -Good- Samaritan

the lonely (good) samaritan

walking 
through
life with
nothing
but  
wrinkles
on the 
face &
bags 
under the
eyes
to show 
for it, s/he
wanders
with a 
helpful
eye & an
altruistic
heart, with
whom no 
one else 
gives a bit
of care or
love to---
but s/he
sees fit
to go on
offering
up his/her
abilities to
anyone in
need, for
the sake 
of the 
fellow
humans 
around 
him/her &
without
him/her
certainly
the world
would 
still turn,
without 
him/her,
the rain
would 
still fall,
but i’d 
hate to
live in 
such a 
world,
having
never 
known
him/her
at all.
