PLEASE LET US BE
We realise there is generation gap
Our children are much younger to map
They grew up in era of technology
We find it tough to match the capacity.
Their likes and dislikes are modern
We tend to like older version
They like newer heroes
We prefer spiritual shows.
They wish to go out and eat
We like home cooked food
They like to order online and buy
We prefer to see visually and try.
They have umpteen things to do
We have all the time to be true
They manage both office and home
We were doing only one alone.
They have children to chaperone
We led them grow on their own
They have a huge responsibility
We lived as time went by.
It's true we lived in different times
Also true we appear wierd sometimes
Let them live their life as they like
Please allow us also to be.
There will then be no conflict
Between the old and new stint
Life will run smooth like a river
There will be peace forever.
