Seeing the beggar barefoot,
the cobbler made him shoes,
But two sizes too small,
the new
hurt the hapless hobo's feet.
He meant well.
Seeing the scrounger so shivering,
the tailor made him a tunic,
But had in mind a much larger
man
and way too big for the tramp.
He meant well.
Seeing the bum standing on
the brink,
the do-good raced to pull him back,
But mis-judging speed and
distance,
he pushed the transient to the track.
He meant well.
Proverbs 27:6
"friends mean well, even
though they hurt you" |
