DON'T HAVE THE ANSWER YET As one grows old One gets more bold And as a boy growing up I have seen folks around me Behave very funny And I always try To find out why In my own way
Of course You were rebuked And told "Hog ask eh mumma How eh mouth so long." They try to shut you down To quiet you To know your place
Some drift away From their peers From their family From their very own And clasp to strangers Forgetting "Blood is Thicker than water’
When we were young We looked up to our elders But when they behave Weird without Rhyme or reason We’re at a loss
I think we are here For a reason We can’t be good At or in everything So we came here For a purpose What is yours
Do you gossip Just for the fun To create mischief Are you a shit disturber And laugh at other’s Luck and misfortune
Do you try to do good Everytime you can Do you go out of your way To help someone in need Or you turn your face
Do you always say It ain’t my business We ants don’t beg And we don’t borrow
Do you live a selfish life Just for you and yours And leave the rest For the other man And do you sleep With your conscience
What do you teach Your kids When you behave So selfish Aren’t you telling them My way or the Hiway
What is your purpose Can you truly say I think I am here And I am making A mark
Would anyone Miss you when you’re gone For this is the only Yardstick to use To judge if You have made A difference
I am getting on The steep slope I have seen a lot I have heard a lot I don't have the answer..yet Working on it But still learning From all the Gurus Around the world. ~Norman Datt~
