WRITING ON THE WALL

THE WRITING ON THE WALL

What I want to say
you may already know
'cause you are always
even cleverer
every moment you grow
some may and some may not
agree with me
but I don't give a hoot
and I don't walk around kicking folks with my boot
You see what is there? On the wall?
Writing
just read it all
remember you are clever
and the goodness you know
is written right there to keep
us aflow-
on top of things all the way we go
Maybe your teachers just don't have
the time of day
but
children -don't go astray
from the kindness and love
we give you and you from birth earn
your kindness and love will almost always
come return
