The young shoots spring forth,
Seeking sunshine, care and love
Will they be able to grow
Will our world take the new generation
With all its hopes,
Aspirations,
Dreams,
Concerns,
And nurture the tender shoots?
Will they be understood,
Their talents appreciated,
Their ambitions fulfilled,
Their creativity given free reign,
Their free spirits valued?
Or will they be controlled,
Belittled,
Derided,
Cut down,
Ignored,
To lay withered,
Unable to grow and bloom.
The choice is ours,
The custodians of the newcomers.
