OBAMA!


Be the change
Start here at home
Don't yell at the kids
Tell them they can
Help them be
Better
Than
me
Guide them in their pursuits
Let them find their talents
Channel ideas and dreams
Til they reach the top
Be patient with failings
Grit your teeth when
They take the fall
And prop them up
So they try, try, try again
Learn from their example
Set into motion the start
Of a new day, a new way
Take a deep breath when
You do yell at the kids
Know that you too will
Need a lift or two
Grant yourself
Peace Love
Forgiveness
Let the day
Let the year
Let hope
Live on
Barack Obama
