Be a child lost at the border, the streets of any city or another senseless death, they are still lost to a family. So I write this message, from the heart, and hope to touch you as we face another year.
Another leading news headline of a young life lost,
What can we do to save them, no matter the cost?
A young life gone, never to see another year.
Causing a grieving mother to shed a tear.
A young teen, at times, brutally killed.
Dreams that will never be fulfilled.
Names in the headlines that we don’t even know.
Statistics repeated as the numbers continue to grow.
May we teach them bullying, we can’t tolerate.
Reach to include all in our touch with no hate.
Embrace the differences that make us who we are.
Accomplish all that and you will be my ALL STAR.
