A Lot on your Shoulders

       Watch out for kids pulling your chair
or maybe pulling your hair.
         Is your chair too big to sit in?
Are you used to being around a lot of men?
         Lighten up poor people’s day.
Let them say “Obama’s our President “Yeah”
         What about your daughters?
Will they meet your playmates
         or when they go to school would they be late?
Or maybe you’re speeding up the pace?
         I love your wonderful style
You remind me of my brother Kyle.
         You’re both so special to me
Don’t you see?
         You’re important and nice.
Your clothes have spice.
         I hope you grow tall
and change the world.
         Be safe, get along.

And...don’t forget to tell your girls.
