The Voice
Tomorrow is not in our hands,
Today is an opportunity room,
Listen to the voice that speaks,
Today awaits our seeds.
Youth is a two-sided coin,
Bloom to the diligent, dutiful and restrained,
A gloom to the recalcitrant, obstinate and the disdainful,
Tell the young at heart,
Some may heed.
Tomorrow is a door,
Today is a time to make a difference,
Show someone the way,
Guide that feet out of the night,
Hold that hand to redemption land,
They may write an eternal ode about you.
Embrace today,
Walk through its path,
Fight its monsters,
Tomorrow embraces the unyielding.
