March on Hunger

Red shirts assembled

Worship centered on hunger

Sang praises to God

Walkers met outside

Umbrellas deflecting rain

Waiting to begin

We marched on hunger

Toward the Idaho Statehouse

Red shirts in light rain

The mood was upbeat

We stood at the Capitol

Hunger was discussed

Red ribbons were tied

To ropes that each person grasped

Then we walked and prayed

Prayers to end hunger

As we walked ‘round the Statehouse

Prayers for the hungry

We’re just beginning

The event lasts the whole month

This March on Hunger

Build an awareness

Of the causes of hunger

Collect lots of food

Plenty food exists

Problem is distribution,

Heartless politics

Red shirts organize

Work to end hunger worldwide

One step at a time
