'We Are The People Old But Bold' Poem by Frank Yue

-- Frank C Yue

We are the people old,
We don't have to be told.
The body's sore signs just show
The old getting very old!

Yes, we're the people old but bold,
We won't wait to be displaced.
Where is our youthful face?
NOW is our own time and space!

Go find the teenager eye's bright sparkle,
Recall back our energy's magic glow!
On Life's lively river we rush down,
With heroic hearts on new challenges we frown.

We're surely very old,
Still, there are places we'd love to go,
Keep on searching, we'll find worthwhile things
That are joyful and make the heart sing!

Whilst Life's full of peaks and dales,
Year-after-year weaker we're getting.
Spiritually and physically speaking,
Wiser now we're still growing and less prone to fail.
