They probably will but let's hope it's a legacy of truth. Telling the how's and whys things are the way they are. I enjoyed this. Well done!

Comment from Arkine
That's a darn good question. Will we remember to pass on what isn't written down? Seems to me we often forget to do such things, or perhaps, wait to long and then the young don't want to listen anymore. Rather sad, but nicely done. :)

Comment from El.Marjie
The message of your poem is strong: write it down. Memory only lasts as long as the person, children hear spoken words inaccurately and incompletely. Write it down. Thanks for writing this. It pushes me on toward my goal of doing just that. Welcome to FanStory. Blessings! Marjie

Its true. Many of life's lessons are unspoken. Hopefully the good things that go beyond words. Excellent idea in this poem. A very thoughtful read. Blessings, Linda

Comment from closetpoetjester
I often wonder this myself and I keep coming up with the same sad answer reflective of this day and age and it is "Probably not". However I do hold out hope for us and we can but only try.
I loved this cleverly written piece and the way you posed the question you did.
Well done and a pleasure to read this thought provoking write.

Comment from Treasuregirl
You have posed a good question there. It does make one wonder if this generation are interested in anything but this generation. Time will tell but unfortunately we won't be around to know the answer. One question: should it be 'forward' on next to the bottom line?

GW I really like what you wrote. The oral word is a powerful tradition and is alive and well in cultures in our world. I thought the way that you conveyed your ideas was well articulated. Thank you. The artwork selected went well with the poem.

Neat, concise and thoughtful. Can't make upmy mind whether the pun between 'forwar' and 'foreword' is intentional.
Brave effort!

This is an interesting message. Took me a few reads to full understand it as I don't really get the ending or what exactly the author is trying to say. It is thought provoking and some of the images stand out. I think a little more clarity might be needed. Good effort.

Comment from JudithMarie
Few words with a powerful question. Your words flow and bring something to think about within each line. This is a current thought for me. A daughter, who is a new mom with one on the way, I have begun telling her and her son stories and things of the past. It is such a special time. Your poem will remind others to not let precious memories get lost in time. Thoughtful writing. JudithMarie
