Inspiration for this poem is from a week staying in San Francisco. A beautiful, sunshine week in early Fall, but the beauty marred by the number of people sleeping rough on the streets; and the answers I sometimes struggle to give to the questions my children ask.
Linking up with others that like to write and read poetry here…
I often think similar when I go to London, the tourists stepping over the homeless….
Well put.
Now I feel extra cold here in rainy Scotland!
It’s so hard to marry the two different sights isn’t it? But you have placed them together so well x
great poem 🙂
Beautifully coupled together Sarah. I too have been to San Francisco and can really picture this. Thank you for linking to Prose for Thought x
Simple and powerful message.
