Points To Ponder

Points to Ponder Thanks to Buckshot for the thought By Franklin Price 9/25/2018 Here are some points to ponder About who should have a say About our lives, and how we live them, The how, the why, the way Those for whom we care the most Our husbands and our wives Our children, parents, siblings Friends who make for better lives The devout and caring clergy, When they practice what they preach, Our important educators When they stick to what they teach The doctors who take care of us And are concerned about our health Those who affect our incomes Our positions and our wealth Celebrities are not among these They are there to entertain The same goes for pro athletes To give advice, they should refrain The Media and all the news Should be always verified Affirmed to our satisfaction May still be taken for a ride Last and least, the politicians Who only care of what they think To listen much to what they say Will drive us all to drugs and drink Should we ever want to speak ourselves The first amendment says we may Our minds should dwell before we speak Can't withdraw the words we say
