For the Youth
Poetry by Rowan Evans

To the youth of the world, hear this whispering call,
You are the dawn breaking, the rise after the fall.
Embrace your truth, let it shimmer, let it shine,
Rise, shine, ignite—your spirit divine.

Stand tall like mountains, unyielding and grand,
Let your voices ring out, a wild, fierce band.
Be loud, be proud, let your colors unfurl,
Rise, shine, ignite—the dreamers of the world.

Your light is a beacon in shadows so stark,
A flame in the darkness, igniting the spark.
Don’t let whispers of doubt cast their pall,
Rise, shine, ignite—you will not fall.

In gardens of chaos, you bloom and you fight,
Petals of courage dispelling the night.
See your worth, young hearts, let it echo and soar,
Rise, shine, ignite—the poets, and more.

Know there’s room for growth, like trees reaching high,
Roots deep in the earth, branches in the sky.
Your journey is sacred, each step is your song,
Rise, shine, ignite—you’ve always belonged.

So rise from the ashes, let your dreams take flight,
Illuminate the world with your radiant light.
You are the change, the revolution’s embrace,
Rise, shine, ignite—a fearless face.

To the youth of the world, this message I send:
Your hearts are the compass, your voices the trend.
Embrace your own truth, let it blaze and alight,
Rise, shine, ignite—turn darkness to light.
