Just say NO
Don't stay out late,
Be home by nine,
Don't play the dealers game,
Don't let them tell you drugs are good,
Because all drugs are the same.
They confuse your mind from thinking,
They make you weak instead of strong,
They numb your inability,
So you can't tell right from wrong.
Drugs make some familes breakup,
Because it's hard for them to cope,
And it keeps your pockets empty,
While you're paying for your dope.
You are our children of tomorrow,
You are our governors of state,
You are our doctor's and our lawyer's,
But for you it's not to late,
The task is pretty simple,
It's a small two letter word,
But it's meaning is real powerful,
Just say NO and you will be heard.

Abstinence is not the show, it's the ticket to the show...
Ideally well done Alice, with a necessary message!

A most timely and important message, Alice. It is much along the same theme as my poem, "Devil's Bride" posted here at AuthorsDen. Thank you. Love and peace to you,

I guess I've always enjoyed my independant mind too much to have messed it up with drugs...thank God! 'Tho, I don't remember drugs being around as I grew up in the '30s, '40s. Now, you hear of it being everywhere...so sad.
