Let Me Be the Voice

Let me be the voice
To sing the old lyrics
Full of ancient wisdom
A reminiscence of an ideal world
And wished for an interface
Of the past and present
To create the future
We all dream of

Let me be the voice
To speak the thought
Of the old
Their sight and gait 
May have been stolen
By age 
Their soul remain
A powerful force
To be reckoned with

Let me be the voice
That will rebuke
The gullible youth
And charge them
To a life worth living
Full of wisdom

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
