He knew well our people in rural Haiti...
Sadly, there's little that's changed since Brother Langston's 6-month sojourn there, in the 1930's.
There is so much misery in the world,
What can I do?
Our community's needs and development are now supported by Facebook Causes Page: IF PIGS COULD FLY - HAITI!
Thank you for reflecting on this post. If you would like to help the community in the mountains of Haiti, please start here:

There is so much misery in the world,
What can I do?
There is so much misery in the world,
So much poverty and pain,
So many who have no food
Nor shelter from the rain,
So many wandering friendless,
So many facing cold,
So many gnawing bitter bread
And growing old!
What can I do?
And you?
What can we do alone?
How short a way
The few spare crumbs
We have will go!
How short a reach
The hand stretched out
To those who know
No handshake anywhere.
How little help our love
When they themselves
No longer care.
How thin a blanket ours
For the withered body
Of despair!
