Give them what they need Jack knives BB guns Sling shots and fish hooks Give them trees to climb A field to run Rocks to dam a flowing brook Let them fly on bicycles Over makeshift ramps Let them crash Break bones Tear flesh Let them bleed and win Stitches that scar That write stories on their skin The hurt will pass The memory and glory Will light them forever Give them what they need 8/13/2025
Love the sentiment, ernie. A little less popular idea in today's world it seems but nonetheless very important.
I love that.
