Children Take All Poem by Wallace Kaufman
Children Take All
CHILDREN TAKE ALL
Children take all. They give none.
Who are we to ask daughter or son
To give love for toy or candy bar?
Our demanding tells them what we are.
Held against breasts where they first feed
And clutched in our arms they learn to read—
The long old story of love's need.
