Vibrant Youth Poem by MIRIAM JACOB

Youth is a delightful state of mind,
a crystal-clear freshness of the intellect,
a glowing exuberance of feeling,
a vibrant effervescence of the imagination,
an efflorescence of the hidden springs
of innate vigour and vitality,
that bubbles up effluently
to water the soul with life.

Waves of divine optimism
overpower our hearts
with child-like wonder,
extraordinary amazement
at the joy and zest of life,
the sheer beauty of it all,
a kind of thrilling enthusiasm,
that is purely indispensable,
the spirit of youthfulness
to vitalize the world.
