POEM FOR OLD PEOPLE



RETIRED LIFE:
They know another chapter of life is retirement
So they live on and on to have another day
They talk to their wife as never before as she remains faithful till the end.
Every day is a challenge for them as society do not care for them
Every one comments Oh that old man?
They dye their hairs take Botox but the inside has grown old
They pretend to be cheerful but face tells another story
They have a good bank balance but can’t eat a thing as the body refuses
They are mentally strong but physically weak like an old car
They have the desires but accomplishment is a huge problem
They were once the back bone of the country but no one care for them now
As a country without them would collapse any day
 Senior and junior citizen makes a good cocktail like Bloody Marry
Like any good thing they have out lived their time
Should they give way to the youth who prefers the white then the brown?
No commitment as the youth does not vote but wants a free laptop
Our retired friends are the old vintage wine which gets better as the days go bye
They get recognition very late when their brain have grown too old
Respect the seniors as the youth would go in the same path when time comes.
