Hey there here is my entry for the Haiku contest
Forgotten lost souls
Ever hungry, never full
Tonight they will feast
My haiku is inspired by our street kid feeding today. My girlfriend @iwanderela decided to celebrate her birthday by giving a bit back to those who could really need it :)

Watching the city streets from my window
Cold wind blows over
All that I can ever see
And so I forget
I hope it's ok I participate again. I love writing Haikus, and your contests are a great opportunity to do so. And I do hope it's not too depressing, January always has me in a strange mood. Rock on!
