To the Children of the World

To the Children of the World



You, little pounding drums of hope,
Who echo the dreams of a myriad years,

You, unyielding sparkles of wisdom,
Who answer the prayers of billions of hearts,

You, fortifying steps of eternity,
 Who erect the aspirations of fallen souls,

Past, present and future have turn their,
                         Glittering eyes upon you,

Expecting you to march on, with all your energy,
                      Under the banner of inspiring love,

Thus:
Conquering humanity’s unconquered
                                                Fears,
Demolishing divisions’ un-demolished
                                             Frontiers
And building, the unbuildable up to
                                                   Now,
New Loving World!
