Burned Learning Poem by Dwayne Banks

Children are our hearts, our future glory
listen, you'll hear a story
The story, awesome when told
listen now, before they grow old
Every little word, you taught them to say
may make you smile or frown today
Sentences are formed, expressions are learned
be very very careful; as not to get burned
Burned by your actions, you were unaware
your young one thought, you really did care
The fight you had with your partner that night
actually turned on the proverbial light
Behind the curtain, you never knew
actions that night, made them blue
Why pull the trigger on someone you love?
you now have to answer, to the good Lord above
You are now visited by the children you raised
now you wonder? , why their eyes are glazed?
