Father Francis found the place,
Sincere smile upon his face.
Brother James runs it all now,
Continuing on somehow;

“Come in, people of the Night”

There is scant in James’ coffer,
Just bread and soup to offer,
To battered souls filing in,
Too many of the lost to tend;

“Come in, people of the Night”

The bread is naught but a crumb,
The thin broth soup also gone,
Others come to eat and live,
Just apples has he to give.

Thank you, Sea,
Brother James, a childhood friend,
Was always a giving person, a kind and gentle person,
And no one was surprised when he got the calling.
I have several poems dedicated to him,
Which I will be reviving and posting in the future.

Thank you, Strbbux,
As it was said it was his giving, that was most remarkable,
Which has for him been all of himself.

Thank you, Jbaker525,
Pleased you enjoyed.
