Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose # 415 (Goodfellows Toy Drive)

Back in 1911, it began-
Still going on today,
bearing a strong, generous,
hand.
.
A shoe-shine boy, who
would not participate
in a Christmas delight-
Through the generosity, of
others, felt a shining bright
light.
.
For Houston Chronicle, City
Editor, George Kepple, saw
the little boy’s plight-
And, set out immediately, to
set things right.
.
He passed a hat around, to
the Houston Chronicle reporters,
in order to collect money, for the
little boy-
Yes, indeed, and then they went
out and bought him a toy.
.
Goodfellows, is the name, that this became-
And, the lives of many children, since
then, has never again been the same.
.
A toy, for every single needy child-
A strong sentence, to put it mild.
.
Christmas is for children, and Goodfellows
ensures, that the statement stands true-
It’s up to everyone, to participate, in this
wonderful program, to do as we should,
naturally do.
.
Back in 1911, it began-
Still going on today,
bearing a strong, generous,
hand.
