Young People are:
Royston 1946 (Reading)
Flowers yet unfurled.
and the future of our world.
Latent talents waiting to express
youthful potential and creativeness.
Diamonds to be unwrapped
and Protégées untapped.
Though sometimes treated with contempt
they are dreams yet to be dreamt,
Lockdown due to Covid 19 has severely restricted us all but hopefully will be lifted soon in the UK enabling us to flourish once again
