Words To A Worried Child                                         9/15/95


Wouldn’t it be nice
to know the outcome of a mystery
before it came to be.
To know the results
of all test instantly
But, you might argue
without the challenge
Why would anyone study
Without difficulty
Learning would be to easy
Things like pride and accomplishment 
would become history
Who you might ask
could be proud of me?
If the answers come to easily
When if I study
I can handle any problem confidently
Perhaps, then, It’s better to do my best
and let the grades take care of the rest
Naturally...
