Walking With Them – v2

Choosing to walk, a six-mile course

beautiful, brilliant fall afternoon

for fun, no stress, together

Very different than the daily struggle,

walking they do, to find food, water

walking in poverty, they have no choice.

But we, even in our abundance, trying, in a small way

walking with them, to remember them,

to reach out our hands, in love, in faith

to try, in this small way to help them

walking because they must
