TODAY'S YOUTH

So much is said in the news today
About those in our mist who go a stray
I want to talk about kids sports
Not those that are out of sorts
Both boys took lessons in Martial arts
There are two black belts in these parts
Each were taught discipline and fair play
To honor their elders each and every day
One went on to play hockey a rough sport
So here's what Grandpa has to report

All player are required to be in
attendance for all itinerary items.
"Five minutes early is five minutes late!"
Team jackets and dress clothes for all games
At the end of the game no matter how roughly played
The teams cross center ice and shake hands
No matter how bad the referring each teams
skates up and thanks the referee for his time
A player on either team hurt the players take a knee
Today's youth are the leaders of tomorrows world
Pray for them they have to deal with drug cultures
A world filled with vice and crime
