    Very good initiative.
    It is not easy
    to serve the downtrodden
    to feed those who get nothing
    but food that is stale and fruit that is rotten
    Physically strong or frail
    difference it doesn't make
    A selfless soul,a heart of gold
    Can alone bring warmth,to the abandoned ,cold and old
    A selfless person touches each heart
    Let's help the needy,follow mother Teresa
    Like her,play our part ,before we depart
    If we cannot look after one destitute for just one day
    Do we then have any right to pray?
