Youth is a delightful state of mind, <br />a crystal-clear freshness of the intellect, <br />a glowing exuberance of feeling, <br />a vibrant effervescence of the imagination, <br />an efflorescence of the hidden springs <br />of innate vigour and vitality, <br />that bubbles up effluently <br />to water the soul with life. <br /> <br />Waves of divine optimism <br />overpower our hearts <br />with child-like wonder, <br />extraordinary amazement <br />at the joy and zest of life, <br />the sheer beauty of it all, <br />a kind of thrilling enthusiasm, <br />that is purely indispensable, <br />the spirit of youthfulness <br />to vitalize the world.<br /><br />MIRIAM JACOB<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/vibrant-youth/
