orphan train

Posted Jan 9, 2020 · 13 lines · 5 critiques

who will help the children
aboard the orphan train
some of them may never
see their siblings again

who will help the children
to start their life anew
who will show compassion
for the unadopted few

who will help the children
once aboard the orphan train
to find the ones who loved them
and help alleviate their pain
