Senile when I grow with my age,
Would there be little good and no sage,
Weeds would start growing my face,
slow my reflexes weak my cage,
happy young children mocking at me,
cute little war will they wage,
tired with play when they will be,
couched besides me will I turn the page,
Take them to the world of unknow wonders,
Demand for more will they
In innocent their rage,
Chuckling merrily at funny little things,
will ask me with innocence on their lips,
Feel would they my heart so warm,
Clasped to me when fear would swarm,
O people they may not be children my grand,
Will I go away like dust from their hand....
