Few have the courage
Few have the courage,
To give trust another go,
In this day and age,
Especially if children are involved
So when someone,
Is the recipient of such a gift,
They must give thanks to the giver,
And make sure they know how big a deal it was to give out their trust,
In this day and age,
When there are a thousand reasons for not doing so,
By being honest at all times,
And cherish both the gift and the giver,
Help lighten their burden when they can,
But give back trust enough,
For them to feel confident within themselves,
By not being seen as one who wants to run their life,
And hope that only good can come out of that,
For the gift giver and the one accepting the gift,
That twenty years from now the gift is in good repair,
With no one is the worse for wear,
That is why this sort of courage is rare,
In this day and age.
