When Generations Merge
The old generations stay in the same place
They are content to put behind the rat race
Old times were much better, now they are long gone
They keep looking back, find no strength to move on…
The new generation’s accept all the new change
No limits or roadblocks as onward they range
With technology their partner as they grow
An energetic youth, fast forward they go…
But what if seniors looked forward, come what may
Embrace the future as they go on their way
And what if the youngsters looked backwards to see
Slower times when man was content to just be…
When each looks at the other in a new light
A balance can be found, and all will come right.
