Language Stamped Out

 

Retarded children can be helped, you say
Your words, not mine; and so I must respond.
Such ideas are phrased differently today;

Retarded children can be helped, you say—
To use such terms for cognitive delay, 
Of this, when young, we schoolyard kids were fond.
Retarded children can be helped, you say . . . 
Your words, not mine. To such I must respond.

 

PROMPT #15:

take a look at @StampsBot, and become inspired
by the wide, wonderful, and sometimes wacky world of postage stamps.
