COMPLETE TEXT: "YOUTH" ©2020

The youth of today
scoff at the past –
Proclaiming their Destiny
from the rooftops...

Facing an unknown future
and a brave new world –
with oblivious innocence
and ubiquitous optimism.

Though we, and they,
may not know
where they are going –
In the end we understand...

They are the dawning
of tomorrow’s sunrise –
We are the sunset
they hold in their hand.
