Help the helpless

The day was just perfect.Not cold.the birds were singing their melody jumping from one tree to another.We were seated in the living room with my family waiting anxiously for the announcement of who was to be the president of Kenya.After a few minutes or so it was announced that Hon.Mai Kibaki won.It was a sign of belief since we had waited so patiently.Not even ten minutes had passed we heard screams all over the place.My heart beat like the west African drums that threatened to come out of my skinny body.What we aw could make Lucifer himself run and never look back.Suddenly we heard "please help us",they said.We opened the door ,it was a man and his family looking so helpless.They told us the story of how their property was stolen and their house burnt down.They only place they could run to for refuge was our house.My family was humble we had little to offer but we took them in and provided for them food,clothes and shelter
