Past, present and future

Children are our future
And future teens make
Young make the present
And some islands the grey make

Time runs fast
Childhood is short
Teens in great hurry
Young in seat of power

Grey makes the way
Young have their way
Teens wary of present
Nothing is the same

Things appear different
Past is not relevant
Vision looks far ahead
Each moment is pushed back

Grey risks to step on the treadmill
And to catch up with the young
The children and teens watch in awe
As the future takes shape at each and every turn!
