SONGS & DREAMS
about
HOPE

by Jeffrey Murrell

HEY, THERE! LITTLE BOX MAN!


Hey, there! Little box man!
Tell me about your life.
Do you care that you were
Abandoned here,
Amidst your pain and strife?

Hey, there! Little box man!
You say the world's so unkind.
So, do you put your
Trust in a God,
or is it just a big lie?

Hey, there! Little box man!
Your house is damp and cold.
Don't you fear
Harsh company,
or have you none but your own?

Hey, there! Little box man!
Why's your life on hold?
Have you no
Goals to achieve?
Have you no dreams? No hope?

Hey, there! Little box man!
Don't you dare
Give up hope!
There'll always be someone who cares;
There'll always be a place to go.

Hey, there! Little box man!
Pick yourself
Up, my friend.
You've taken a break from life;
Please don't
Make it your end.
