A Boys Worth poem A Boy’s Worth
Nobody knows what a boy is worthA
boy at his work or play,
A boy who whistles about the place
Or laughs in a carefree way.
Nobldy knows what a boy is worthA
boy with his face aglow,
For hid in his heart are secrets deep
Not even the wisest know.
Nobody knows what a boy is worthAnd
the world must wait and see,
For every man in an honored place
Is a boy that used to be.
The best thing a father can do
for his children is to love
their mother.
When I was fourteen, I thought
my father was an old ignoramus.
When I became twenty-one I was
surprised at how much he had
learned in seven years.
Mark Twain
Train up a child
in the way he should go:
and when he is old
he will not depart from it.
Proverbs 22:6
To bring up a child in the way
he should go, you must travel
that way yourself.
