Sonnet: Some Children Nowadays

Though parents rear their children very well, The modern youth behaves in ways so strange, And turn their parents' lives almost a hell; Adults cannot their children for good, change! But children in these modern times are smart; They want to see their dreams come true quite fast; They are so sensitive right from the start; They take not lessons from elders or past. Advice they scorn and wisdom they don't want; ‘Rebellious', they want to have own ways; ‘Some prefer creased a shirt and holed a pant! They love the shoes sans lace or long a lace.' The modern youth believe in risky feats; They do not want one failure or defeats! Copyright by Dr John Celes 28-12-2016
