This week's bonus Rough Cuts are two poems for children, one cautionary, the other more motivational.

The words I say into the air
don't just quietly disappear;
they keep going, they keep growing,
so I will always speak knowing
I must be careful what I say,
for my words will return someday.

Just because someone hasn't,
doesn't mean no one could.
Maybe because no one has
is just why someone should.
Just because it's not been done,
does not mean it can't be;
It may just mean the right one
to get it done is me!
