Remember When

Remember when Remember when...you were an innocent child when everyone was good and you could trust every smile? Remember when... children played outside alone evil was not lurking on the green grass of home? Remember when...children walked by themselves to school parents were not neglectful, or breaking any rule? Remember when...schools major problem was students chewing gum not bullets flying randomly from an unhappy students gun? Remember when...AID was what you gave to someone else in need and there were no hungry homeless people living on the street? Remember when...terrorism was just another ordinary word and did not touch you personally and was rarely ever heard? Remember when... you were told that these were signs of the last days do you believe it, or still think that nothing's really changed? John Derek Hamilton April 03,2016
