Where Charity Needs to Begin
"Charity begins at Home"
Or is that true these days?
Is it just where our hats are hung
'Fore we go our separate ways?
It seems the Family suffers
Not sharing a common meal,
Each one on a different schedule
Too busy to share how we feel.
And in Survival's interest
The kids by others are kept,
Two paychecks seem so important
Tho' the Day Cares are proven innept!
Home to an empty dwelling
The Latch-Key kids do come,
Wonder why their behaviors bad
And why they oft' seem so dumb?
Let Charity begin at Home
Let Parents both agree,
To be there for the Family
As a Top Priority!
For when Love begins at Home
It's rippling effects, we will see,
To generate a lot of Good
And Bless our society.
