The Future

The world is a scary place.
Wars and evil are commonplace.
Childhood is where it all starts.
Let them enjoy the arts.
Let them dream.
Let them balance on the high beam.
Let them explore the sciences around.
Give them music so they'll sing a loud sound.
Give them drumsticks to click and clank.
Give them mathematics by handing them a piggy bank.
Teach them the ways of the past.
Let them dance and have a blast.
Let them speak their mind.
Give them pets so they'll be kind.
Let them draw a colorful cartoon.
Fill them with curiosity about the moon.
Give them water toys so they'll squirt.
Hug them close when they hurt.
They make mistakes that we often suture.
Our children are the future.
