When we build
for everyone,
everyone wins:
The ramp helps
not just wheelchairs
but strollers,
delivery carts,
tired legs.
Captions help
not just deaf ears
but noisy rooms,
second languages,
different processors.
Multiple ways in
mean no one
stands outside
looking through
locked windows
at learning
they can't reach.
Every entrance
leads to the same
beautiful place:
understanding,
belonging,
growth.
Design from the start
for every brain,
every body,
every spirit
that walks
through your door.
" EDUCATE " " I've told my son, I've told my daughter to get (smart) and never, ever be (dumb)." Education not (association) isn't the place to be, because then they would be able to (rhyme) just like me." To Mothers and Fathers (legislation) is no (competition) to " education", being with "book sense" is the thing to do, being (dumb) makes you answer to (who)? If we would just demostrate then there shouldn't be any problem to " educate." This would be such joy to see our young (learn) without all this (gang banging) no guidance, nothing is changing. " It's still not to late to guide or teach them, right from wrong, because you'll see that it would be them who will surely pay, " well people," let's take some time to teach our young, just how important it really is to learn, learn, learn, so that on " Judgement Day, they won't burn, burn, burn."
If a man can't educate his child
He teaches the same to fight!
It may as well grow up to be wild
And things may still turn out right!

We all have a little knowledge
And so much to learn.
Addiction is about briefly burning bright,
Then alone and without in the bitter night.
So horrendous is the wretched addict's plight,
It offends us — but we still don't teach kids right.
Continue to educate yourself
Never stop learning
Make valuable use of opportunity
In order for understanding
The world is an open book
As you forge ahead
Occupy your time wisely
Enrich your mind instead
Everyone Educate Horn Limerick
Each poem which I wrote was great;
Sent to Poetry Soup can hardly wait;
Limericks ended up lost in open space;
To find them everyone around did race;
Hope one day they have a positive fate.
Jim Horn
Who You Did Educate
Some poets seem to have a perfect excuse
For writing poor poems with subject abuse (Not substance)
Having hard time about which one to choose
With their difficulties should declare a truce.
With ourselves having grief we must give in
And like the many morons there have been
Quit writing cruddy poems again and again
That to people like me is such a perilous sin.
So what should we do in poor poem's place
Our frequent problem begin to forever face
Let lingering ones disappear without a trace
Do give in and yourself begin to embrace.
Start developing new lovely style as of late
Get up each morning and can hardly wait
To now write a poem infamous and great
Thank those at Poetry Soup who did educate.

Educate yourself India,
We have to blow the flame of development;
Punish them India,
Those who play with nation's amendment;
Restrict yourself India,
The devils want to drive us out;
Get ready India,
The battle is to begin in dragon's bout;
Protect yourself India,
From the people who promote corruption;
Indians teach young India,
Give them human values and other lesson,
Make yourself India,
The politics is making downtrodden;
Show the world-India,
Give strong message we have to send;
Don't celebrate freedom India,
After the Whites,Blacks took it from us;
Grab a great India,
Learn quickly for success,we have to rush;
Need you India,
We can't forget love for each other;
Tell themselves India,
Polticians' voice we hardly bother.
Educate me people
Can you hear me from the steopel?
How can you learn from the streets?
I know hip-hop can teach you different beats
Music can teach you a lot I'm sure
Reggae, hip-hop, r&b, and etc. are so pure
How can you learn from a friend?
Someone who always sin
Do drugs and steal cars
And is put behind bars
How can a camp teach you better?
Learn how to love and write your enemy a nice letter
Do push-ups and climb a wall
Climb to high and you might just fall
Educate me people
I said do you here me from the steopel?
There's more to be learned than taught
Do you know about Dr. King and Malcolm X and how they both fought
Come on people put the little kids in school
Doing the right thing might be cool
Learning can actually rule
I know don't no body want to be a fool
Looking at the wall can't teach you nothing
At least turn on t.v or do something
Television probably can do some good
Learn something new, I think you should
Give me your knowledge
So I can learn and go to college
'Cause if no one wants to listen
Then I'll pay attention
