Old Is Gold, Be Bold
Every second every soul ages
Time inflicts on body damages
This increase in age disparages
As old age has disadvantages
Though with courage, youth manages
It will not accompany at all stages
To meet the future wisdom encourages
Experience gives wonderful messages
We learn while traveling in life-passages
We accept all traditional usages
We are caught in conventional cages
Old age makes us all sagacious sages
Peace and experience are our wages
Old age stops us from exercising rages
We build for ourselves certain images
We procreate through holy marriages
We are lucky in escaping miscarriages
We come across unscrupulous sabotages
Leading to very disastrous carnages
End cancels all problems and privileges
When old age is attained
Only weakness is gained
By work body feels strained
Energy could not be obtained
Youth cannot be retained
The same cannot be regained
May feel energetic mind
The same energy, body cannot find
Activities are restrained
All joints are easily pained
Health has to be maintained
Sex cannot be easily entertained
Body’s condition must be ascertained
Our state must be to Doctor explained
By noble deeds, health can be bargained
Tough tasks when are assigned
Acceptance must not be blindly signed
Tedious manual jobs can be resigned
To live healthily, body must be designed
Worry not as all will be very kind.
