The Code of Silience


	The Code of Silence When the kids start to talk we think oh how sweet, But then for years on end they never miss a beat. We hear endless chatter what could have them so wired? Don't their sweet little jaws ever get tired? But now we have heard it so long our brain has become numb, At first we don't realize the silence has come. It started about puberty when parents are no longer cool, We ask them “What’s up?” they roll their eyes like we're a fool. For now, they've returned to their silent mode, It must be some strange universal teenage code. JRS © 1999 The "Okie" Poet Questions or Comments All poems copyrighted ã1997-...
