The King of Lions Cage.

The Poem says about empowerment of old-aged people and describes how they are always ahead and superior. They are the champion players in every field of life.

We have done much work,

we are experienced. 

We have walked every road, 

we are the genius. 

And like a strong metal, 

our bones are still tough.

Heart as soft as flower, 

spread fragrance of love. 

Inside is a river, 

that can't run dry.

Like an elegant bird, 

we have learnt to fly. 

And like a Graphite, 

our skins maybe dull.

But our sayings like Diamond, 

may brighten every skull. 

Inside these eyes, 

there is still a fire. 

To keep moving on, 

achieve new desires. 

And like a soldier, 

our courage will never loose. 

Can still climb the mountain, 

make a struggle like troops. 

We can still groove like DJs, 

and can rock n roll 

watch us moonwalk like MJ, 

put a ring on it like Beyonce. 

With the blessings of God, 

we'll keep generating power inside. 

won't ever be afraid like Eminem, 

even when death comes in life. 

Because. ..... 

we are the players, 

we have got the age. 

We've been the champions, 

the king of Lions cage.

A most honorable tribute to one's elders from that generation, that here in America, has zero respect for their elders ... It is good to see that respect is taught and learned in India ... You see, we all were twenty once, and then we opened our eyes to find we were sixty ... Nicely done ...

I am really honoured to get a review like that. Thanks Marvin sir.

A touching piece that breathes life into old subjects, well done, good read.

[Bluefire]

A new twist to an elderly fairy tale.
Each elder has a story in mind, a pocketful of sunshine filled memories, and each child should have an open ear, for you never know what will come rolling off their tongues next.
I like this poem, well done!

There is so much to learn from our elders. You have captured that well in this wonderful poem. If the subject was difficult, it doesn't show in your writing. You did an amazing job.

Nice write! Australia is terrible in the way the youth here do not respect old people anymore. My generation did.
