To abandon their children
the unthinkable
to give up their homes
to lose their freedom
The State essential
our duty, responsibility
to care for our neighbors
to raise up one another
offering hope
to our family in need

calling on the NH Legislature
and the Governor
to spare those without a voice
those who need us
from the severe budget cuts
that are currently planned
in HB1 and HB2, etc.
