“Oh, excuse me please” was my reply.
He said, “please excuse me too; wasn't even watching for you.”

We went on out way and we said good-bye.
But at home a different story is told.
How we treat out loved ones, young and old.
Later that day, cooking the evening meal,
My daughter stood beside me very still.
When I turned, I nearly knoked her down.
“Move out of the way,” I said with a frown.
She walked away, her little heart broken.

But children you love, you seem to abuse.”
