Knock Loudly and Wait

by papa55mike


My boss gave me a list of groceries to buy and told me to bring them to this address. It took me a few minutes to find it. I've never been to this part of town before - it's a section of old houses that seems to be crumbling back into the earth.

A note on the door tells me to knock loudly and wait, that's what I do. After a few minutes, an older woman answers the door.

"Hello, I believe these groceries are for you."

Tears fill her eyes. "Thank you, son. You've answered an old woman's prayer."

Let's all help each other during these troubling times.

Many thanks for stopping by to read!
Have a great day, and God bless.
