Duty

I believe we have a duty to the children:

Not just the children we raise,

The children we meet,

The orphaned children around the world;

But to the children who once we were

Who Dreamed so many great things for Who They Would Become.

When you rise,

Do your job,

Greet the world,

Do you make that Dreaming child proud?

Or have you neglected

the first child

you ever loved?
