“Oh, the value of the elderly! How could anyone not know?

We all will read the other side this I firmly believe
And the elderly are closest oh what clues we could retrieve.
For their characters are closest to how we’ll be on high.
They are the ones most developed, you can see it if you try.

As a nation, we are missing our greatest true resource,
To get to know our elders and let them guide our course.”
