I Am

'Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.'
Matt. 25:45

I am
The baby
Wailing in the night.
I am
The old man
Quivering in fright.


   I am blue eyes
   Welling with tears.
   I am brown eyes
   Haunted by fears.


I am
The woman
Begging for her bread.
I am
The sick boy
Tossing on his bed.

   I am hopeless.
   I am a slave.
   I am weeping
   At a new grave.

I am
The young girl
Crying out in pain.
I am
The outcast
Huddled in the rain.

   I am hungry.
   I am in fear.
   I am hunted,
   As death draws near.
