Great Samaritan

I heard a story of a modern day Samaritan and I wondered what I would have done. Too many people would have driven off hoping that someone else would do the right thing. But how long does someone in distress have to wait for their Samaritan to come by?

 

Great Samaritan

 

Got a big loving and caring heart

Right from moment she saw her, from the very start

Every personal crisis stood still and she was there

At her side where the young was crying, no one else showed to care

The corner was dangerous and the bike caught her eyes

 

She looked from her car and saw a girl then  heard her cries

All her clothes were torn from where she fell

More shuck up by the spill than hurt from what they could tell

And though she was dirty in her face her heart seemed clean

Regretfully everyone had passed her by, why are people so mean

It was soon her parents came to answer her call

This was a remorseful eye opening, this fall

And “What is wrong with people” so many passed bye uncaringly

Now the Samaritan’s words ring true “She could have been me”
