“Oceans of Possibilities” is the theme of the 2022 Summer Reading Program in public libraries throughout the US, sponsored by the Collaborative Summer Reading Program

————

We were young then

Full of youth and vigor and optimism

Scarcely looking back

But always ahead

To hopes and opportunities

What we would do

Who we would be

Each day was the same

Living not for now

But for the future

The years passed

Sunrises, sunsets

Career, success, failure

Love, loss

Till we came to fear tomorrow

Looking back at missed chances

Misplaced wagers

Unfulfilled dreams

Let us once more look ahead

Seeing oceans of possibilities

Beckoning us to set sail

And know that in the face of the infinite

We can find purpose and fulfillment

In being forever young
