The
aging elders
It
is a reality in the nation
There
is no escape by 2030
The
over 60s retire to watch sunset
Many
may have a fruitful life
Living
in comfort in their homes
Of
the ringing voices of grandchildren
The
smiling faces of their children
They
can spend time
Idling
away for some
Time
to do something worthwhile
Maybe
catching up with books
The
aging elders
Some
aren't lucky
They
will be struggling
Until
they get knocked away
Some
will be abused
When
they can't contribute to the homes
The
children will take out on them
They
are at their mercy; they have no income
But
current laws are inadequate
The
doctors can't pursue or help
They
will get the treatment
The
children will see to that
The
aging elders
Some
enjoy their lives
Majority
will be sad
Living
in fear; afraid to get kicked out
