Middle aged lady
Looking tense,
Holds cardboard sign,
“Need 25 Cents”
Curious, I roll my window down.
“Just a quarter? Why?”
“I’m saving money,
A bus ticket to buy”
“My husband just died,
Family don’t care,
Want me to leave too,
But I need bus fare”
“A friend in Arizona
Told me she’d give me a room
I just need to get there,
Need to go very soon”
“So I’m saving quarters,
or whatever I can,
To leave this place,
That’s my plan.”
Only cash I had was a few coins.
“It’s all I have to give” I say
“It adds up” she smiles,
“Thanks for helping me today”
The light turns green,
I wave a quick Good bye,
“God Bless” I say
Thankful I took time to ask why.
In two minutes at a red light
It’s amazing what you can learn,
Just roll your window down,
And show some concern.
