Forever Changing Scene

Brand new is this world,  to the very young,

excited and frighten, are they, when they discover.

The world, for what it truly is, 

of which, parents with their knowledge, try to cover.

 

Finding out, unlike the world imagined,

as it is portrayed, from access, from many a stage.

Becoming angry, while parents, pick up, 

the pieces, as they some how, must deal, with their rage.

 

Refusing as soon, as their grown,

not to be, as they heard or have seen.

Realizing also, in association with, their parent's wisdom,

life itself, is a forever changing scene.
