NOT IMPORTANT

Who in the background
tirelessly reaches out
offering whatever they can
to an outstretched hand.
Who are the silent ones
helping to feed
the homeless
the displaced children
the refugee.
Most are nameless
not important by choice
yet totally committed
to being right there
reaching out when needed
with a helping hand.
So I raise my voice
to those not important
you are to the millions
who were helped
in their times of trouble.
