Children of Our Time

They look up above to the skies with their young and innocent eyes. Little children not really knowing where their young lives are going. Some are born of kings and queens others just of people with dreams. Some are born into families so poor others destined for riches and more. Adolescence will arrive out of the blue their bodies will change, they will too! Many will become technology slaves and adopt some rather strange ways. Boys will see girls, in a different light and dream of them deep into the night. Boys will wear clothing with a hood girls will say they’re misunderstood. They’ll be arrogant, just wanting fun a bit like us, when we were young. Some may learn from what they see in the ways of people like you and me. But they all deserve a chance in life even just to be a good husband or wife. To find happiness in whatever they do and to know success and humility too.
