Kenyatta's Corner

This is a window into my world, my thoughts and ideas about love, life and pain. I have been writing poetry since the age of thirteen and I have used my poetry to help me with the joy and pain of life. I hope you enjoy sharing my life story.

He Smiled

Walking down a lonely street
Busy with cars
Horns honking
Music blaring

He smiled

My eyes were weary
My voice yelled “what are you doing?”
As the car whizzed by me
Honking my horn over and over again

He smiled

Clean Clothes on my back
Breakfast in my stomach
Shelter over my head
All the luxuries of life

I couldn’t smile

He walks barefoot
Torn clothes
Empty stomach
He is homeless

And He smiled
