It was a cold, blustery, winterly afternoon,
A group of senior citizens walked in the rain to catch the train.
The train station was just a small shelter with a bench.
My heart sank, at the "no respect" the two young girls showed.
They continued to sit,
When many of the senior citizens, some in their 80s had to stand in the rain.
I felt sad,
when I was young,
I was taught to give respect, and give up my seat for an older person.
In school,
I teach my students, to give respect.
Where was the respect on that Wednesday afternoon?
