In this, my generation
the future seems uncertain.
Life is a stage,
yet, how can we play,
unless one pulls the curtain?

So it is a tragedy;
this orchestra with no conductor.
How can there be
a symphony
with no musical instructor?

It is the children of America
that are our future mothers and fathers.
God bless and keep our families well
and save our sons and daughters.

I like this a lot. Every generation has it's problems, it's uncertain future. Somehow we find a way to get through it all. Then one day we find the next generation close on our heels telling us how tough it is. It is human nature..... Looking forward to more from you soon.

the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost
