Posterity
POSTERITY©
Long ago and far away
We never thought we’d reach today
Living long we never dreamed
Could ever be as we had deemed
But here we stand hand-in-hand
It’s nothing like we might have planned
Back then we’d not conceived
Things of today could be believed.
Tomorrow brings more wonderment
Things of which we have no hint
Sadly we won’t be allowed
To have our minds become endowed
With things we’ll never live to see
They are for posterity.
That’s one regret we can’t recall
But posterity will see them all
When their age increases to
The ages of both me and you.
