Unnoticed OLD

As saying goes, "Old is gold"
Once they gave food, decisions and moral,
How to think, solve problems and puzzles
They taught about vertical and paralal.

Old people are gone and now unnoticed
All their wealth are left behind on earth,
We see only us, our paths and streets
But who made possible of such birth?

Greeks didn't write who before them
From whom they copied and modified,
They avoided the existence of the past
Destroyed old idols to be solely glorified!

Alone one, never invented a thing
But the ruling guy in the right time,
By pushing others to dark, out of seen
Takes applause, title, becomes prime!

Who was Buddha before the Buddha
Generations, disciples were not taught,
Who inspired Socrates and those others
From whom the shiny present we got?

Old people live in old peoples home
Whatever they did are no more good,
Next emperors are ruling and bullying
To sell us food, icon, vehicle, livelihood!

As saying goes, "Old is gold"
Once they gave food, decisions and moral,
How to think, solve problems and puzzles
They taught about vertical and paralal.

This poem say all truth of old people.When someone tell that old is good so should be first old in the old home,empty,sad and lonely, The old can't wait for anything and for anything only for death.Nothing before them.I fear of such a moment so I woldn't like to be old.I prefer to die ealier without waiting for this oold age and the death and before it feel the taste of old age.Never.This time is very cruel.

chanmok: We all can see this poems in different ways. The way I see it You are OLD AS YOU WANT TO BE. AGE IS A STATE OF MIND. Gold, well gold tarnishes and it has to be cleaned from time to time. While Old is a symbol of strength,maturity,and a fountain of knowledge, something that gold can not give. My great-great uncle got to lived if I recalled correctly 104 and he die @ his house and never lost or regretted a moment, he told me once that the reason he got to be that old was because he had a little bit of brandy every day before he went to bed.I still can see his face and he had a beautiful face. Where I work I see all kinds of faces, old, and young and they are the same to me. Why is that? You may ask, because I try to see them with my heart not with my eyes. That is where the problem lies. Individuals who only look for beauty, who only look for the size of the person [meaning anything above 12 size some people consider FAT], consequently we become vane, we get hang up on things that really should not matter. We forget sometimes that is better to love with your heart and soul than with your mind. However you find individuals that think, act, and behave in such manner, and will go to the extreme to achieve perfection,even if while trying to do that they might look fake. I think that wrinkles are a sign of knowledge, and strength. A sign that this particular individual has earned a rightful place amongst the individuals who had given all for their families. Not to many can say that. OLD IS GOOD, and we should be able to try to take care of them,

To: noramaj: Please do not feel bad about being old. It can be sad and empty @ times, that is true, however it does not have to be that way. The way I see it: It is up to me how I'm going to live the rest of my life, even in my old age. I will not sit down an wait for death to come, I will not just lay on my bed all day waiting to see if today is that day. That will be very depressing. Where I work it is not the way we do it. You should see our residents. We always have especial things going during the week. National Nursing Home Week is May 10th-15th, and every day the Activity Dept. has plan something special. They go out on outings, The County Fair,so see they do not sit and wait for death to come, they are happy, because they are at home. We go to work at their home. Our Facility does not look like an Institution. We got birds, dogs, cats that do stay at their home. It is part of their home. So please do not fear, do not worry,because I believe that there is an angel for each one of us who will see us thru every phase that we might have to go on the path of life. Trust me, vt2

You all did well in defining and explaining. You put strong logic. What else I can say! We use examples in explaining matters. We all do that for better understanding, for modification. But truth is, two things are not 100% same in characteristics. Suppose, Nature is our food for life and got many ingredients in her. Such as, trees, mud, water, air, stone, coal, cat, tiger, human, iron, copper, gold, silver etc.etc. As said above, in order to understand we always compare 1 to 99.9% characteristics of one thing with other. Example, Bush was an iron man. But was he an iron? No? Here the word iron is used as an adjective. Similarly I was convinced to wrote in the sentence, "old is gold". In the aforesaid poem, I merely praised the old people or people in past who founded our present. But in stepping on their civilization or good world of acts, we are walking on various directions, most of the times to destructive ways. They were good and precious like gold. Here in the poem, old is stated as valuable as gold, old is as shiny as gold, old is as mostly used as gold, old is as expencive as gold, old is as worthed/good as gold etc.etc. So, it is our individual perception to describe a thing in our own ways. Don't forget that our sense organs lead our perception and sense organs are vitals to translate environment, environment of anything. I respect everybody's perception. I don't know if I am qulified enough of all those sweet and higher admiration from "vt2". But definitely, she is giving me a lot of courage and positive energy. She is very kind, a good critic and I love the way she writes. She is a role model as a giver. I thank you wulpen, nora. Hopefully, we all can get energy from the sun like those two little men in the cartoon placed by nora. It's morning here and I am smelling the aroma of nora's black coffee.

Chanmok: I see your point now,it is how we value the Gold an the trees, the air, and all the things that surrounds us and how we use it in order to preserve it.Yes I believe that our FOUNDERS FATHERS WERE GOLD. they are the ones who gave us what we have now, what we are now. Power can be misused, misguided, and use as a punishing tool. There are individuals who CRAVE POWER and one they have it they think they can use it like a IRON FIST, however they forget one little thing: that sooner or later they realize that they are just like us "HUMAN". It is true also that we walk a path of destruction. So what we should do? We all know that our lives whether we want to believe it or not are 6 degree of separation. Therefore because of that and how we view things, perceive, feels,and want our future to be, I guess we should be polishing this precious gold. It is up to this generation to install to the next generation how important it is, and how precious it is to have all those things that do matter. Saving that which is important to all generations, and allowing them to experience what we once had, regardless religion, culture, age, background or political views.vt2
