youth

When I was young,
things were simple then .
Right was right,
Wrong was a whippin.

If we strayed,
and we were caught.
was no fun,
what came our way.

We grow up,
offered oppertunities,
we should ignore.
God teachs a way,
we sometimes ignore.

The trouble when grown,
if not a slap on the hand.
It is behind bars,
that you will stand.
