Be Kind to Your Parent - Pete Seeger

Be kind

To your parents

Though they

Don’t deserve it

Remember

They’re grown ups

A difficult stage

Of life

They’re apt

To be nervous

And overexcited

Confused

From the daily storm

And strife

Just keep in mind

Though it sounds odd

I know

Those parents

Once were

Children long ago

Incredible

So treat them

With patience

And kind understanding

In spite

Of the foolish things

They do

Some day

You may wake up

And find

You’re a parent too
