Children In Their Innocence

Children in their innocence do not know better
In long gone years some pre teenagers thought a french letter
Was a love letter from France their parents did deceive them
And their children in their innocence  without question did believe them
Like Gypsy is a word often used to describe Rom
French letter is an other word used for a condom
That to the young mind double meaning words can be confusing
Such words can be deceptive and this is not amusing
The innocence of children is a thing of great beauty
To believe what their parents do tell them they see as their duty
In their naiveity  children in their trust on those older expressing
But their great gift of innocence to them is a blessing
And do not say of them they ought to know better
When they hear their parents talk of a french letter.
