As saying goes, "Old is gold"
Old folks gave food, decisions and moral;
How to think, solve problems and puzzles
They taught us about the vertical and parallel.
Old people are gone and are unnoticed
They left wealth behind in the earth;
We see only us, our paths and streets
But who made basics and the birth?
Greeks didn't record who were before them
From whom they copied and modified;
They avoided the existence of the past
Destroyed old idols to be solely glorified!
Alone one, never invented a thing
Though ruling guys ruled in that time;
But they were self centered and selfish
They took sole applause, title, to remain prime!
Who was the other Buddha before Buddha
Next generations or disciples were not taught;
Who inspired Socrates and those others
From whom the shiny today we got?
Old people live in old people's home
Whatever they did are no more good;
Next emperors will be ruling and bullying
They will sell their food, vehicle, livelihood!
As saying goes, "Old is gold"
Old folks gave food, decisions and moral;
How to think, solve problems and puzzles
They taught us about the vertical and parallel.
