Elders

Blessings to the elders who've had a full life long,
thanks to these who've paved the way for the younger to belong.

Celebrate the elders whose wisdom enriched our life,
kindness to these who've strengthened us in our times of strife.

Praise to the elders whose experiences are passed to you,
grateful for these whose prospective you can continue.

Joy for the elders whose impact stands today,
Remembrance for these who've lived and passed away.
