Sticks And Stones

by Darcy Willis aged 11

Sticks and stones may break bones,
But,
Words will never hurt me.

When I get hit by a stick,
I say,
“Ouch that hurt,”
but,
I just get up and carry on.
I hope you will learn to do the same,
And just get up and carry on when you get hurt,
If it’s down the park or in school or up your friend’s house.
