Conflict Between Ages
conflict broke out ages ago
between the young and old
The young complained
“Your bones are very strong
ours just fragile and weak”
“Fine”, old men said in unison
“Let’s wait fifty years to come.
When you reach our ages
then a good balanced fight
we shall have in fair game.”
They all waited patiently
but all old men died to dot
before the fight could begin!
