Hope (Pass It On)

They look at
The world
With such
Wide eyes
And such wonder
And have no idea
How badly
The world
They love
Is going under
They know
Nothing more
Than what
We tell them to
They are clean slates
Ready to learn
And sponges
Who absorb
Maybe
More than
Intended
They are
The worlds
Children
The truly
Innocent
And they
Deserve
For us
To leave
Them
A better world
Than it was

When we
Ourselves
Found it
For hey
Call me crazy
But in my
Opinion
That is
The responsibility
Of every new
Generation
To try and
Make the world
Better and leave
The new generation
With more hope
Than the
One before it had
Maybe I'm crazy
But for thinking so
I will proudly
Wear that title
Because it is
My opinion
That a better world

Starts with us
And the hope for one

Is and should be
Passed on
From generation
To generation
While each one
Plays a part
In making
The world better
