Dare We...
 
  Dare we...

Teach our kids to be thinkers
and honour their thoughts
even when they don't comply
with our own

Dare we...

Teach them art, true art
which is in the seeing, the feeling
Indeed all the senses
linked to the imagination
and the aware mind

Dare we...

Teach them Love
Sharing
Forgiveness
Using ourselves as the example

And if not

... Dare we explain why!
