Give Them Wings

    “and they will fly”

    ya, and they wonder why

the road to Happiness

    certainly not the one they put me on

    and they wonder why I don’t respond!

BETWEEN PARENT AND CHILD

    we don’t see it the same

    and they say I’m the one to blame!

When the Wood is Green

    they’re tried to bend me at their whim

    despite my opinions, much to my chagrin

HER MOTHER’S DAUGHTER

    and she wonders why I got naughtier

    if she’s not careful she’ll be convicted of manslaughter

THE WORLD I KNOW

    the one I don’t want

    the grass has to be greener away from this haunt

POWER IDEAS for A HAPPY FAMILY

    ha! can power and happiness coexist?

    if so, there’s something I’ve definitely missed

I’m OK, You’re My Parents

    so keep your distance

    I’ll let you know if and when I need assistance
