Title: People of Tomorrow
Post by: jahtiger on January 26, 2006, 10:38:44 AM

Will generations after me weep?
only if I had com to sleep
Will my children cry?
only if in life I made no try.

Every blessed day
with a sacrifice we pay
to make the world a better place
so people stop thinking of outer space

We till the land so they eat
give them a place to land their feet.
Daily, our sweat soaks the the earth
and we seem to be only saved by death

We toil for generations after
only if those before did better.
Though tomorrow will think for itself
People of tomorrow are yet to think for themselves
