The Eyes of Tommorrow

Kids running backwards,
the memories, the sounds,
the memory, the forgotten situations
the hope and the leaves
that fall to the ground.

The long days of summer,
the short days of spring,
the cold days fo winter,
the stories that were told
to tuck a child in.

The dreams of tomorrow,
the love that grows, within,
the hope for something better,
someday, it will sink in.
