Old Is Gold

I met many of them,

They are wise enough

To understand;

The sadness behind smiles,

The pain of the sufferers ;

They are mad enough,

To wait;

For someone who would never show up,

For the love which was taken away from them;

They are old enough,

To read one's visage...

We all know them

Some of them receive the happiest side of life

with their family, son, and his wife...

Some die awaiting 

for their loved ones

who went away making life pleasurable...

They just want to spend sometime

with family and friends

God knows when their journey ends.

They wanna play with their grandchild

Learning their likes and dislikes;

Don't throw them from your lives

They are the ones who gave you life

Without them, you'd rather be nothing,

They are the ones who gave you everything...

Even if it meant they had to suffer

They'd never utter a word,

Even if it meant to pick up a sword

Against the Almighty God;

They are your parents

Don't leave them

Just spend some quality time with them.....
