Summer's end
A Prayer and a Poem for back to school
** I think the picture says it all** and that is how I want to segue into this.
Parents every where are both excited and anxious
because its the beginning of yet another school year
school shopping new clothing only to be told that
Mom ewww if its not exactly what they want.
Supplies bankrupting
our wallets depending on the grade.......
the scared look on incoming freshman
as they realize
they are now the bottom of the pile
at least for the year unless they become popular
But more than that
as they leave and depart for school
a prayer is said
asking for their safety
in hopes that we don't hear the dreaded fearful words
that haunt our schools and take our youth
