I sit here alone with nothing to do
Wondering of things that I should pursue
Things I should know, but are a little unclear
To make this world better for everyone here
Some are important but, I have no control
But choices must be made to establish a goal
And reviews should be done to develop a list
Hoping in the end there's nothing I've missed
These items I choose must be within reach
And easily transferable to those I can teach
So I can contribute to life and my fellow man
And make things better than when I began
If this I can accomplish, I'll feel I have done
Something that can continue, for it's only begun
And can be picked up and carried by all of us here
With our future intact and perfectly clear
We'll all know the direction of this society of ours
Removing all of its blemishes and unsightly scars
Making this world a better place for all of us here
So our children can grow up with nothing to fear
