MY LITTLE STORY
by: David W. Johnson, Jr.
Give me a moment for a little story that goes like this
The saying is, America is the land of milk and honey
Without family love, the milk and honey you can miss
Milk and honey last a short time making drug money
People are saying many American children are losers
American parents and adults can prove people wrong
If we do not help them, we are as bad as their accusers
Adults make children smart, proud, fearless and strong
It is much better when these things began with family
Children need family, role models and support programs
Bring these back and an awesome change we will see
There will be change in attitudes, respect and exams
Here is that little story I want to tell, so pay attention
There once was this child growing up without a family
His inability to be happy was beyond comprehension
Only negative things in the world he seemed able to see
Traveling down rough roads alone, in and out of trouble
Instead of helping, all everyone seem to do was use him
On a daily bases his misery and hardships seem to double
For this young child, now turning young man life was grim
When he had all but given up hope and didn’t care anymore
Along came an adopted family and positive changes began
Proof positive that it takes family love to open up a close door
Family, to Job Corp, to the U. S. Army his blessings did not end
A very true story and that young child, is this adult poet and writer
Living proof that God, family, community and love can bring glory
Adults, families, it takes love and support to make a child a fighter
Hopefully adults, you will get the message from, “My Little Story”
Let Us Join Together and Help All Children
