Parents

The best job in the world 
Is the job of a parent.
It’s a job that pays
In hugs and pleasant smiles, 

The sounds of joyful laughter 
A tip just for you.
If you please them enough
A few kisses are granteed too.

The customers are fragile,
And extremely delicate. 
The smallest mistake 
Will cost you greatly.

You have no breaks,
Forever like slaves.
A great responsibility,
A unique chance. 

So do all you can 
And give it a chance.
Try being a parent 
For little kids who have none.
