Setting a Bad Example: a Blameless Attitude

Some parents set a bad example when don't make their children tremble: no fear of an omniptent God, no faith to sustain them in hard times; they themselves havel lied, and their seed have no love that fortifies. Tomorrow these boys and girls will have no vision, no future with an indelible event: young ladies impregnated by irresponsible boys, who smoke and drink holding no steady job, and worst of all, they will steal and rob to support their habits...would kids want daddies like that? What's happened to the united, caring and godly family that worshiped God and gave Him thanks for their prosperity? What do we see after its breaking-up: hate and rebellion: with mom and dad being neglected and entirely forgotten? We have seen the outcome of this social plague: people relying on welfare; no, our forefathers never experienced or even imagined of being the scapegoats: the abused and the unloved... who are those young men and women on the city's streets, or anywhere? Why are they in such a pitiful state? Don't they have eyes that sag and lips that are drier than sand? You may find one of your kids there! Copyright 2012 by Andrew Crisci

Right though.. I totally agree with the statement made in this rhyme.. I loved it by the way. Your rhymes were crisp and precise. There were some grammatical issues but that is minor. Lovely write my friend, It is good to be back on the soup, good to see all my friends.. I have missed you all terribly in my absence... :JP}
