Fear
Submitted by faughnanc on March 27, 2008 - 11:01.Fear is just a lack of understanding. You fear something when you are ignorant about it. Because if you know what something is, why should you be afraid? In our world today there is so much fear about the stupidest things. For instance, have you ever been in a pool and gotten yelled at because you were giving someone a piggy-back ride? What’s going to happen?

In the beginning you were growing,
Like all babies do.
Inside mamma’s tummy,

To have a sibling,
Inside mamma’s tummy
I loved you.
In the beginning I was wondering,
What you would be like?
Inside mamma’s tummy,
I loved you.
Then you came all small and happy
