Boys to Men

The future
of men
begins
in the eyes
of boys.

It begins with the
courage to look beyond
the dreams you were
handed and the wisdom
to make your own.

It begins with the strength
to see more than you were

told to be and the vision
to know who you are.

It begins with
the flicker
of boyhood,
and becomes
the fire
of
manhood.
