The retrospect of days gone by are but for the one's that have lived many days

Those still with early years shall respect the stories of the elder's early ways

In this we seek to learn better lives than those before our time

And as we age like the preceding, we shall be inspired by the sublime

Aging is wisdom and a lifetime of knowledge that should be revered

The parents, grandparents and great one's should be paraded and cheered

They are the ones that brought us life and have lived life sometimes hard

So that we may become aware of their teachings and not someone to discard

We must know that getting older is a fact of our ultimate demise, and we too will have our turn

So before our death we too shall share with others our earthly concern
