Lessons Taught
Pictures painted by those aware
Having lived it all, they have their say
Innocent faces with interest stare
Holding questions held at bay
War stories, life stories, brutal truth
Related with passionate voices
Bring the awe of quizzical youth
Morals built for future choices
Lessons learned on neighbor's porches
The old man has so much to relate
To the children who will carry the torches
Leading to a future date
Lessons taught with celebrated tales
From those who had been a part of time
Are the winds that bellow the great white sails
Of ships that endure with hope in mind
