A Nameless Beggar

I passed an old beggar on the street

He wore no shoes on his feet

I wondered from where he came

Or if he had a name

Sitting by his mat was a tin can

A passer by could throw a penny in

In the cup was only a few

I threw in one or two

He just laid there in his dirty clothes

His eyes were fixated and froze

I wondered what his thoughts were of

Or if they would someday get him up

Just for a second I cared

Didn't even say a prayer

My feet kept walking by

Without a second thought in mind
