THE CHILD TURNS TO YOU
Down to the dirt, the child trips
Unsure of their pain.
They look to you before they react
-should they cry, or their sorrow abstain?
Into the gutter, the bully pushes.
-The child innocent and kind.
The child looks to you before they react
-should they forgive or speak their mind?
You carry a great deal of power.
Your example sets the way.
Will you teach with virtue
Or set the child astray?
