Workshop # 2
Workshop # 2An old man,
In the summer.
Sitting with a child,
Waiting for his death.
With none to help.
In the deserted place.
Pitying the little child,
Who is with him.
Worried about its future
The old man,
Lonely and tired,
With no one to turn to.
Waiting expectantly
For the God of Death,
To come and take him joyfully.
Waiting together,
The starving child
The old man
Waiting...
For deliverance,
From hunger
From life.
No one coming to their rescue,
But letting them suffer
But God is there with them,
In life and in death.
They will wait and wait....
And will surely die.
Like the others,
Before
And after them.
Still sitting in the same place,
Still as deserted as it used to be.
Now who will save them?
Only God can.....
