Michael E. Harris Poet I do not know?

Mama Say Papa Say

PLEASE ALLOW ME TO REITERATE
THE THINGS WE DO TO MAKE LIFE GREAT 

WE WALK THIS EARTH WITH FIVE GREAT SENSES 
DON'T ABUSE THEM BY BUILDING FENCES 

GO FORTH INTO YOUR FUTURE, LIVE YOUR LIFE ALIVE 
OPEN UP YOUR VISION, TAKE IT ALL IN STRIDE 

YOU DON'T HAVE TO LISTEN TO EVERYTHING YOU HEAR 
THERE ARE THOSE AMONG US WHO INSIST WE LIVE IN FEAR 

TAKE A LOOK AROUND YOU, SEE ALL THERE IS TO SEE 
YOU DON'T HAVE TO ACT LIKE ALL THE WANNABEES 

GO TO SCHOOL STUDY, YOU WILL TASTE SUCSESS 
YOU WILL ACHIEVE A VICTORY, IF YOU APPLY YOUR BEST 

SELECT YOUR BUDDIES WISELY, GO AHEAD STAY IN TOUCH 
BEWARE OF THOSE AROUND YOU WHO DON'T CARE ABOUT YOU MUCH 

YOU CAN SMELL THE ROSES, WATCH OUT FOR THE THORNES 
LIFE IS TRULEY WONDERFUL IT'S THE REASON WE WERE BORN
