Can I look now? Is the world all better yet?

A child’s question…a poem

what lies ahead
for us
what will you leave
behind
will our world be
sunny and bright
or dying
and violent
will it be filled with
love or hate
equality
or prejudice
will it better
for us
than it was for you

what will you leave
behind
