No -
Those Days Are Gone
A most valuable asset
Yes -
My love
My Child
Tell Me Yes
It begins with the young
From a mother's womb sprung
Innocent one could do no wrong
Cords transformed a song
From deep within
A cry out
As if a bud in bloom
Flowers sprout
I have -No- patience
--The noise
LOUD
Can take out a crowd
Time goes by
One may whine
Some cherish by a shrine
Bundled in my arms
Caressed by one's charm
Be alarmed
A parent needs to decide
Make up their mind
Wether to agree or subside
An answer you will find
When asked the questions why
You simply cannot lie
One will want to cry
Do you want to take a guess
I did not do it
You knew it
What a mess
The Answer
No
From childhood to adolescence
The Answer remains the same
It is not a game
Imperative that you reply
No piece of mind is worth the shame
Society is to blame.
Plain and simple
A gift from God
Peace
Lifts my soul
This precious child made me whole
