Beneath ancient skies we live
And give birth to so many more
Who will,
like us and everyone who lived before us

Look up and wonder

Will they wonder glorious things
or will they look in fearful anticipation

Will they consider days of old
And how every person before them
impacted this time that is now theirs
This time

designated for them to thrive

Or will they just live
Driven to bring the necessary change
For the ones they give birth to

There are those who have no appreciation of the past and that is a mistake. This is a very impressive write.

May they wonder glorious things, for their thoughts will materialize. We have this responsibility.

Wonderful write!
