Building blocks for future generations Despite discrepancies of daily needs Understanding others situations Sharing overcomes the power of greed In childlike innocence there is no race As hunger thwarts one's willingness to learn He will not let the extra go to waste In adolescence shows he is concerned A simple word is so significant Gaining knowledge at an early age Together solving problems makes such sense The lessons learned will last them all their days If we could see the world through children's eyes Simplicity is where solutions lie an original poem by Daniel Turner

It's the simple thoughts that make the greatest impact ... our problem is making things too complicated! Awesome poem that encapsulates the photo very well ... I wrote for this theme too, but it ended up being much longer, and so probably won't place ... but I'm happy with it nonetheless.
