Who Makes Our Future?

The future looks grim and dark
Continuing to grow without appease
Always trying to make bigger and better
Not worrying about what's actually a true need
What happened to the good old days?

When you could just go outside,
To snack on a freshly grown apple
Sit in the grass watching the sunrise and set
Traveling to work with no need for a car
Will it only get worse from here? Only you know

    Thank You!!

    Thank You for Your entry: Who Makes our Future
    This piece tugged at Spirit and touched the Heart for
    You asked Magnificent questions...
    Will it only get worse from here?

    We help make that determination~
    and while reading I kept seeing the good old days
    when people could leave their doors unlocked...
    cars unlocked...be able to walk home from school
    without fear of being kidnapped or approached
    by a stranger with malicious intent...
    Seeing how privately owned businesses
    now not so private...having to close shop...
    Personable employees seemed to have been replaced
    with robotic attitudes...
    You posed much to think about

    ***Just a reminder- please credit Photobucket in Your
    Author's Notes section...Thanks

    These lines grabbed and pulled~
    When you could just go outside,
    To snack on a freshly grown apple
    Sit in the grass watching the sunrise and set

    wow! How true...and disturbing. It's sad how things change, especially for the worse.
