For Our Grandchildren

I hope this for my grandchildren and our planet… That the water will always be drinkable And we shall have enough for the animals. That kindness and love will prevail over anger and rage. In the future I hope that automatic assault rifles will be broken Into tiny unusable bits, so that earthlings can have peace of mind That they will not be murdered by those who are insane and selfish I hope that even police will not have to carry these monsters. In the future I hope that the air will be pure, That cigarette smoking will be something no one remembers That cancer will be gone forever and there will be a cure for dementia I hope this for my grandchildren and our planet…

Wonderful dreams, Caren, although I am afraid that’s what they will remain. I fear for the future and don’t think things will be any better in our grandchildren’s lives, but I really hope you are right and I am not…
