PM?-I wish!

Pocket money? Healthy diet?

Being kind?
I’d like to see them happen…

But they snatch our parents joy
Which’s worse than paying tax
They snatch one’s friend on an early morning
And the next you know one’s friend is gone
…Maybe gone forever…
Somewhere
One doesn’t know what to call anymore
And where even a witch’s spell is useless.

That’s why diet matters least to me
Or homework, or money…
‘Cos I have no right to fight
To grow happy, kind and free…

But, if any of you get to be a PM
Good luck! But please
Help our parents sleep for once
So they can happily greet us
Good morning sons!
