There is so much talk of what teens do wrong
I think it is better to focus on what they do right
They often study late trying to get good grades
So many teens behave well, some have jobs and school
Some are too busy to focus on what others think is cool
Some are phenomenal writers and have such insight
I read so many poems from them on this site
I think they should get some credit for the good that they do
I met some teens in my community when they volunteered
I give the teens that do right a cheer, I wish to recognize you for what you do!
