Truth be Told
A Poem by
Allen Smuckler
short and sweet...sometimes one thought is enough.
What's better than family?
I have long arms…
I don’t know why
I have long arms
but I do,
and I’m proud.
Everyone should have
what I have…
It would make
hugging each other
so much better…
and last
so much longer.
