The old man stops and then he says,

“The world has changed in many ways,

Some change is good, some change bad,

May make us feel good or awfully sad.”

Suffice to say we will move on,

Be our stay on earth short or long,

Soon the old ones will be dead,

Today’s young folk our ‘leading head’.

What comes next I do not know,

But we will reap the things we sow,

Born, we grow, get old and on,

Until the day we all are gone.
