Children
They have dreams
And aspirations too
So step back
And let them bloom
Prune to flourish
Don't pluck them
This principle governs life
Yet you eat the young
Fighting for Identity
And a sense of place
What will the future be
When you cannot see
How your actions
Affect eternity?
We have cheaters
Haters and killers
We have rapists
Masochists and arsonists
Yet you blame the children
When you raised them
Step back
And let them bloom!
