Silver Spoon
26 April, 2004
Author: Barbara Goodhew
We wonder how some seem to get everything.
While others seem to get nothing.
The ones with everything must of been born with a
Silver Spoon they get all the breaks.
The ones with nothing say they get no breaks in life.
Well if respect, working hard and trust means having a silver spoon.
Then we all know people that were born into poverty with a
wooden spoon, changing it into a silver spoon.
We have to earn what we want like respect. trust and getting
A SILVER SPOON
