Generations gaps misplaced
displaced thinking oft times
Well if your job lands you there
tread carefully on this line.

Children born late in life
to parents who longed for years
both sides might ask you stuff
generational gaps unclear.

I always used myself, my life
explain a differing point of view
when all these people I still love
didn't get each other and stew.

Never did I take a side
say one was right or wrong
never crossing any line
So in peace we rolled along.

Even with a thorny bush
always trying to spoil the fun
I love these souls with all my heart
Though damaged we'd all come.

Sins of the father are his only
As are too, the sins of the son.
Look in the mirror reflect carefully
That's where the battle is won.

So if you find yourself in a gap
between generations apart
always measure words you speak
and always speak from the heart.

(same goes for mothers, daughters)
