Rhymes For Children Poem by Tosin Adesokan

Not for children
The pangs and the humiliation
Let them be fearless with pen
Even when they are given a simple composition

Play with children, don't let them feel sad
Tell them to be snappy
After doing something bad
Give nothing to them but let them be happy

Tell the children, the realities
When they have work, tell them not to play
Give them the right mentalities
Show them the heavenly way


Beat the children, when they are wrong
Call them later and show them their flaws
Teach them how to be strong
Whenever they see animals with claws


Sing to them, rhymes for children
They deserve nothing but the best
Let them go and play with Uncle Ben
Let them feel like the rest
