 ~The Foundation~
~The Foundation~



*AGM*
Everything has a foundation
A building, A house
An Ocean, A river
A tree, A flower
A person, A baby

Everything has a beginning
Where it starts to where it ends
All depends
On it's creator.

You build a house
from bottom, up
with loving care
wanting to have
everything
Perfect.
Like you've always
Dreamed.

An Ocean has a bottom
It houses many living creatures
The boats on it
were built from bottom, up
with loving care.

A tree or flower
grew from the bottom, up
with seeds or bulbs
roots are the foundation
They are nutured to
smell and look
beautiful

Dogs and cats
Lions, all living animals
grew from a foundation
to reproduce
loving, they nurture
their babies

Babys
have a foundation
In this world today
the foundations
seem to be crumbling
eroding, falling down
Weak,
Unloving
Uncaring

The foundations
are destroying Our future
The Childrens future
the childrens life
born into a foundation
of pain, anger
hate, lust, greed
Death

Everything with a Foundation, is always built with such pride and care, wanting it to  be perfect.
Except 1 thing. Our children.
Don't they deserve to be built, raised, nutured, loved everyday, with more care than  anything else you build?
Why aren't they? Why?
