Traditions….
Traditions of times gone by
Propelled to a future unknown
Baptism, communion, 21st, marriage
Symbols of becoming
An admission to a way of life
a cleansing of the past from where we came
a reminder of greatness, responsibility, hope
a journey to follow and participate
in the future that, has now arrived
the landscape unrecognisable
from when the tradition had been set
yet, here we are accepting, expecting, ritualising
and deciding which part of the responsibility and hope
we will participate in
and which we will discard….
