Touching Poems

Book Cover & Preview Text
Billy’s Wish.
I''ve written a letter to Santa,
I''m a nine year old lad.
I hope he brings me what I want
Like a home and a mum and dad.
My home is under a railway bridge
In a box is where I lie,
It was freezing cold last night
I prayed that I wanted to die.
My clothes are torn and dirty,
My feet are blue and numb
I can''t hold out much longer
I wish I had a mum.
Just a few weeks to go,
I hope that it goes fast
I''ve got a crust of bread left I hope
That it will last.
So Santa, see what you can do
I''m feeling ill and weak,
Find me a loving home and get me
Off the street.
