 Contemporary poetry by Dan Donlan

GETTING OLD AND SMART



By the time
 maturity sets in
And we are old enough
 to know all the answers
Our hearing and sight so bad
We can't read or hear the questions
We understand teamwork and sharing points
But out knees are so bad
The younger players go right by us
Getting older and smarter
We let the kids make all the mistakes
Sooner or later they well come to us
Seeking all the answers
