* Believe In Children: Seeds Of Hope Poem by Terence George Craddock

There are people who profess
children are heirs to a better future.
vessels of resplendent visionary hope.

Do you not know
the future is now?

Teach future seed children now.
Hear hope visionary cry now.
Today's mistakes cannot wait...
for an improbable tomorrow.
History is preparation made today.

Problems solved
do not perpetuate
a grey oncoming day
with loud fear thunder
of lost leaden horizons
as smog asphyxiates - perpetuity.

Inspired intellects harbouring compassion
choice reject cynical capitalist ideology.
Cultivate plant tend nurture seeds
of genuine encompassing humility.
Repercussions of all acts spread indelibly.
