Earth Day 2006: for my children biological and spiritual


Poem Artwork

As I Look in Your Eyes

Based on our past our future might look discouraging
Yet I choose to hope the young will have better sense
Than their elders whose hatreds have been so intense
When the young speak of their dreams it is encouraging

And anyone could do better than we have done

Although my generation never listened to me
So my effect on things was limited at best
They liked my books as they shook their heads at the rest
But the young know that they hold the keys of destiny

That the world can be saved that its people are one

Although now it is dying the young know they must save
This home of ours because it is the only one we
Have ever known and they alone can do it: be brave
My young friends the hope of our world belongs to you

As I look in your eyes I see I am young too

For those of us who believe, we are "forever young." I see hope in youth as well, Stevie. Thank you for sharing this gift. Love and peace to you,

The future torch is always passed on Steve and the youngsters who inherit it are always stronger, bolder and more loving then we the new seniors to be are. I do not think they are any more vigorous in their desires to create a better place then we were when it was once our turn. Perhaps the youth you see in their eyes is a reflection of what once was.
