Quinzaine: Role Models

#1
The future depends on us.
Will we be worthy
role models?

#2
They're eyes see all that we do.
Can we be better?
Should we care?

#3
They idolize who you are.
Should you be careful
how you act?

#4
They look up to you with awe.
Do you deserve it?
Are you true?



these four quinzaines were written in response to Jingle Poetry's Poetry Potluck [Idols, Role Models, and Mentors].  was a tad trickier fitting this theme with this form, but technically i find anything with syllable restrictions to be a bit of a challenge.
