Tomorrow's Child

Cry for the children of tomorrow As we perpetuate their sorrow While we pollute and destroy the Earth Forfeiting the rights of their birth Their futures will be sad and bleak What's left to inherit for the meek

Indeed! Dear Randy, I admire the piercing power of your poetic pen in its poignant expression of this sad reality inherited by "the children of tomorrow". Yes, I cry, for the children and for Nature as our Earth is made uninhabitable for all lifeforms. Great title too for moving piece. Warmest wishes.. ~Susan

Yeah, I agree with you Susan. We treat this planet like a garbage dump. Such sorry shepherds we turned out to be. I appreciate your feedback baby sister.
