The verdict

The storm raised
by morons expelling hot air
has receded
And now there is a sense of calm
and peace generated by
young minds infusing fresh thoughts.
The message is clear
Cast out the old decaying ideas
and let the sun shine on
the new sprouts
and nurture them
to foster a
Bright new world.

    "let the sun shine on"

    Interesting how that simple phrase conveys such feelings of warmth and promise, just like when George Harrison sang the line, "Here comes the sun"
