Their convictions were firm, from which they’d never roam.
These families had embarked to teach their children in their home.

My, oh my, the subjects taught would amaze most anyone
From algebra, the classics and even World War I.

There’s history & science & language & the arts.
There’s reading to a sibling and learning to cook tarts.

Chores, pets and work teach responsibility.
Are you getting the big picture of how great homeschool can be?

The oldest may be reading a novel by Jane Austen
While one just younger may find interest in the economy of Boston.

Johnny in the middle, an artist in his heart
Is studying the great works and discovering his part.

Next in line we have one learning all the ABC’s.
Learning to read is so much fun when you are at your mother’s knee.

Then there’s the baby. What’s the lesson to be taught?
It’s patience & priority & compassion..........that’s a lot!

In this land, where most families seemed to be divided
These homeschool families worked real hard for a family united.

If you are a family to whom homeschooling is so dear,
Find strength in knowing you’re not alone, you’ve lots of friends out here.
