The Franciscan Center -
A Poem

The Franciscan Center helped us in many ways,
They taught us things that we will remember in future days,
And if we work hard the job will pay,
And the payment of gratitude is always okay.

The Franciscan Center brought us off the streets,
The staff got us back on our feet,
They told us never to take defeat,
Because if you try hard you never be beat.

The Franciscan Center is a great place,
They’ll take in anybody no matter their race,
Even if they have a very different case,
It doesn’t matter as long as there’s a smile on your face.

The Franciscan Center helped us all out,
And now we’re succeeding without a doubt,
Because the staff taught us what life is all about,
So now we have no reason to even scream and shout.

Through it all The Franciscan Center is the best,
They gave us a place for our heads to rest,
And they gave us the time for money to invest,
And most of all they help us get stress off our chest.

Through my hard times The Franciscan Center was there for me,
Life was so blind before now I can see,
So I’m going to keep trying and be the person I’ve always wanted to be,
Because in the end The Franciscan Center was there for me.
