To Help With Homelessness



To Help With Homelessness
Author: Mark V. Markov

It's so easy
To help with homelessness
Collect a tax
And open up
The new big buildings
With beds
And a cafeteria

So the homeless
Would have a place to stay
Warm in winter
And cool in the summer

So the homeless
Would have
Three good meals a day
With seconds

Just like stadiums open up
In emergencies
There should be a big structure
With security

To stay open year round
And offer the basic necessities
Such as roof over their heads
And three good meals a day

That way
Every homeless person
Would have a place to stay
And not be homeless
On the streets

And guess what
Than there will not be
Much homelessness
Any more

Every person needs
This place
As a back up
To get back on their feet
And than get a place for themselves
Or continue and stay in this structure

It is needed to share about
Jesus Christ with others.
So this place would share,
The teachings of Jesus Christ,
With all that wanna hear.
So they would improve their lives.

It's so easy
To help with homelessness
Collect a tax
And open up
The new big buildings
With beds
And a cafeteria

Don't know why?
Some people make it sound so complicated
When it comes
To fixing the homelessness dilemma

It's so easy
To help with homelessness
Collect a tax
And open up
The new big buildings
With beds
And a cafeteria...
