Innocence Of Youth Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Noticing two boys playing pool here at the Senior Center,
both concentrating intently on trying to get the balls in-
to the pockets and winning the game.

Pure and total innocence on their faces, the wonder and
beauty of youth not yet learning the truth of what lies a-
head in their futures.

Hoping it's not all strife and strain, having hope and a
genuine faith will get them through whatever is thrown at
them in the years to come.
