Alienage Poems | Examples

Kids

Kids are creative, made in God's image;
we parents are just coaches on this earth.
God has prepared for them lines of scrimmage;
kids are creative. 

Kids demonstrate a great challenge at birth.
We take pride; their "great"ness we envisage
forgetting their Creator grants them girth. 

We focus on our lines of lineage 
and give God small credit for their real worth.
Is that why they rebel in alienage?
Kids are creative.
