Earth Day 2006: for my children biological and spiritual
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
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.
