As a child, I laughed, as my hands nipped with cold I played in the snow with no gloves, I was bold! As an adult, I pampered and painted my nails If I broke one, I whimpered, I bothered   I wailed. As a teacher, I clean and I care and I feed My hands they are broken, cracked Sometimes bleed! Our children are lost in a world of new rules made up by an army, a gaggle, Of fools! They mask-up, obey, and they do what they're told Too scared to rebel, to be free, To be bold! GG
