Thinking of Parents

Didn't doing well to parents
they would be fine

age of parents:
now
From the 60's to the 70's,
From the 70's to the 80's,
80's to 90's
It is passing

What I feel these days is actually like this

Children who are good to parent
                      misbehaving child,
A child who gives joy,
                            hurts
give the same
love the same

I also
Even if I made a mistake and gave them pains
parents (like now)
with a sorry heart
-- can't give us much --
with regret
They will be giving more like now
generously

if only i knew this a little earlier
I would have enjoyed
my life more.
do not notice.
