A Childs Point of View

Why do people smoke tobacco, is it good for you,

Cowboys have tobacco that they sit and chew,

They look so very grown up, sending smoke into the air.

It does not really smell nice, but they don`t seem to care.

I wonder why they shout at me when I say can I try,

No way! can you smoke, it will make you die.

Grown ups are odd, as they say we are only looking after you.

So WHY do they smoke? IS it good for you?
