Toward Tomorrow

Worth is not grounded on morals or manners,

but on magnificence and money.

Personal profiles are plentiful with

portrayals of physical perfection.

Women wonder why

wardrobes are worn

which epitomize the perception

that the wearer would act wildly.

Fads feature food as forbidden fruit.

Fashion fosters fear of fat.

Families feast on fast food in a frenzy

of festivities and fun.

Perhaps, as parents ponder

particular pleasures for their progeny,

the importance of teaching

toddlers tolerance and intellectual truth

will intensify.

Regardless of riches,

without worldly wisdom,

we will all wither.
