New Millennium

The new millennium is here and what have we done raised a son or a daughter that's commendable for some But what have we taught them and what have they learned many years have since passed Is it for those years you yearn Then things were quite simple for a man and his wife when high morals and ethics were guides in one's life Having dinner as a family playing together with the kid's many parents today have no clue what that is Are those days really gone when a mother stays home working hard for her family the children not left alone When Dad mowed the lawn On a Saturday morn with Mom cooking breakfast by her children adored with Spike running crazy all across the grass kid's running and giggling are those days now our past Where did we go wrong did we become greedy or ashamed of our grandparents lives or from where we all came Did we think we knew better with higher education an all did we ignore family values did we make the call Whatever we did we did it all wrong It's yours mine and ours family units aren't strong The new Millennium is here and to what did we amount maybe grandpa was right It's the little things that count When a man can see good for all his hard work When a wife shows support for all that he's worth when children feel loved and show love in return when respect is a virtue we all will have learned Maybe then we can sing and be off good cheer better days are ahead the New Millennium is here!
