the oldies

The oldies

In the parks

In the gardens

In the malls

The years melt away

The wrinkles on the faces

The lines line up nicely

The signs of oldies

On the path to golden years

But the oldies

They aren't hopeless

They have storage of knowledge

They have the skills earned and learned

They are still can contribute

To the young generations

If the young are willing to listen

Salute Tun Daim Zainuddin

He gets his Doctorate degree

In his early 80's putting most of us in shame

This is the motivation to push others

Learning isn't a destination

It is a continuous process to stay relevant

The oldies

Don't say they are out of light

They have the library of knowledge

They are useful to guide the young

The guide posts to a better living

Though granted some oldies

Are the pain in the arses

They think they are mighty

They don't listen or receive advice

Generally, we should accept

The oldies have the practical experiences

The young should listen and make it better
