We're so naive When it comes to kids.
We think it's "forever" At least as long as we live.
Parents are important to needs. To eat, play and grow.
Like all animals -- They learn and then go.
Time passes quickly. They move away.
Come home to visit. Seldom to stay.
Or if they do, It's to use and to snooze.
They're still on their way. They search "What to do today.?"
Our eyes were set on future times. Their focus is on what can be "mine".
They dream so much. They lose track of time.
Tomorrow is always another day. What difference now to sit and play?
Fingers scrolling, following, Eyes fixed and glowing.
Believing they'll find Whatever they lost or "left behind".
So many believe Life is theirs to control
Are we headed again. To being told and to Serve?
Is that the only way to remove The kids who think they're "nerds"?
Who sit and dream far past their time Believing the "right answer" shines
