The Lost Boy
By Lisa Noe

There was a boy who was homeless
He lived under a bypass bridge
He was named Arthur Douglas

He lived in the town of Cambridge
He was only fifteen years old
They wanted to send him to an orphanage

But he was far too bold
No one could catch him, he hid from them
He didn’t even care about the cold

Then came Christmas, he thought of Bethlehem
He dreamed of the Christmas story, about Jesus
He knew they too where condemned like him

In his heart he lived in a palace
Free from all of the stress
No more no one to harm him.
