Old is Gold

She may be over ninety, I am sure  
She still can walk, I am amazed a lot  
Except a walker frame for her support  
Her walker has a lot of stuff on it

A bag full of torn, soiled dirty clothes
A basket full of junk (for me and you)
Feeble, frail but she was not on move  
I saw her at that place, await someone

Supported by her walker frame to hold  
Her foot that often changed, are truly sore
I can’t assume I bear that lengthy wait  
Awaiting someone whom she loves a lot 

She might be right to greet her love, her hope  
Indeed for someone who can lend her a hand  
A star who gets here might give her hope  
One thing I’m sure, she has no home of her own 

She has no one who cares around her own  
Oh Lord, you send her someone for tonight
She needs your help and hand to live her own  
You send her someone to take her home tonight
