I’ve seen children…young boys…walking arm in arm
their faces in identical grins
I’ve seen them laughing….playing, hugging
without questioning the different colors of their skin…
I’ve seen girls and boys walking together
I’ve seen them playing…climbing trees
without questioning their different sexes…
all so young
so innocent
so free.
I’ve seen young boys walking hand in hand
I’ve seen young girls walking this way too…
never thinking that one day there will be people
who think this is taboo.
I’ve seen children walking united
I’ve seen how their love is strong…
and I’ve also seen them being taught
how these feelings might be wrong
Which makes me wonder…
when it comes to how to love one another
If we are searching fro the truth
perhaps the answers can be found
In the wisdom of our youth.
