choice games

teaching games

Jan 27

so many young people i’ve loved

so many little ones i’ve included

in games to lead, in loving laughter,

them to figure out for themselves

the hows and whys that yield

them independence of thought

and self-confidence of action

i watch them grown now into young adults worthy of respect in their own and others’ eyes

how much did my games help?

very little, probably, but i like to think

they helped in choosing direction
