: Can You Love Me? by Mrs Anna Howard
Question writing prompt entry

Do you see me?
suffering homelessness 
Do you want me? 
 
Under the pine tree,
that one on the footpath 
Do you see me? 

Once young and carefree,
now alone and lonely
Do you want me? 

No one else but me
stomach and soul empty 
Do you see me? 

Nowhere else to flee 
so I just stay right here 
Do you want me? 

The Bible says that He
could love someone like me,
But, do you see me? 
Do you want me? 

 


Writing Prompt
Write a poem in which every stanza either begins with a question or ends with a question.

Author Notes
Matthew 25:35-36
"For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me"
