Lord On The Sofa

#AZatPP  #letterL  #day12

.

On my daily walk,

I notice many an interesting thing.

But none so wonderfully moving,

As when I spied, seated on a sofa, a Lord, a King.

 .

On the pavement,

His family built their home.

Huddled on a tattered, broken-down sofa,

T’was all that they did own.

.

All around him, squalor did abound.

Parents a-begging, flies too buzzed by.

But the little boy sat daily on the sofa,

Neither a whimper nor a cry.

.

While my own kids squabble,

For the remote on my sofa, warm.

There is none so comfy,

As this Lord On the Sofa, which is his Home!
