Quiet Night

As he walk along the empty street
the cries of bats and cats filled the air,
slient wind caressed his face,
he drags his one-ton foot,
no idea where it'll lead him to,
he stopped.
For his foot could no longer carry him.

Desperation was all he felt,
to get out of this lonely road
was gold to him,
but all he held was a penny in his hand,
no passer-bys, no taxis.
Boy, is he going to stay there all night?

He prayed upon the starry sky,
to the Lord above, almighty father.
"Send me your holy spirit, for i know
as your child you're here by my side."

Alast, God responded to his prayer,
sent down a miracle on him.
A car drove by and stopped at him,
"Sir, would you llike a trip out?"
His eyes sparkled like the stars above.
"Oh yes, of course! those words I prayed to hear."

He stepped into the car,
looked back and said
" Thank God, I am out here."
