Samaritan's Purse

Acrostic

 

 

S earching the store aisles

 

A dorable gifts found

 

M ix with school supplies

 

A rrange in the shoe box

 

R elease package on its long journey

 

I n prayer send the gift away

 

T rip to what country?

 

A nd into what child's hands?

 

N ew toy, school supplies

 

S pecial day to remember

 

P ray without ceasing

 

U ntil after Christmas

 

R eason, believe it reached the children

 

S upernaturally the right children

 

E ternally changing his and her life

 

 

Author's Note

Our church participates in Billy and Franklin Graham's Operation Christmas Child by preparing a shoe box with a few items that will make a child happy on Christmas Day..

Your poem is touching and inspiring. The way you describe the act of giving is both thoughtful and poetic. Your use of acrostic and imagery is particularly effective, and it helps to create a sense of wonder and compassion in the reader. I think that your poem is a testament to the power of art to help us process our emotions and connect with others.
