The Clarity of Youth

The Ragtag Daily Prompt this morning is BOGGLE

The Clarity of Youth

A new generation,
youth ready to right
all the wrongs
of this old world.
It boggles their minds
how we’ve let things
get in such a mess,
why people haven’t
sorted it out by now
when answers are so simple
and so clear – to them.
You almost wish
they'd never have to learn
how complex issues can be.

    1. Right. Becoming discouraged doesn’t take us anywhere. Yet the older we get, the more human we find others are — and finally how human we ourselves are. Also, the more we learn how seemingly simple solutions have been tried and led to other problems. 🙂
